Wheel setup question

Car: 2013 740i M-Sport

I’m looking into getting a square wheel setup, but the specs are:

275/30/20, 20 x 9.5, et +40

Will my fronts rub with a 9.5” wide wheel (+tire)?

I am NOT lowered at the moment.

Since no one answered, I thought I’d share what I had to do with this setup.

The wheels needed 12.5mm front spacer (12mm cutting it VERY close) and I used 15mm spacer in the rear (for looks).

I had to change my inner barrel to make the width a 22x9 from a 22x10 and the shop told me good thing i didn't go 22x9.5 as they first recommended because it wouldn't have fit so to answer your question most likely it won't... i have a 2011 BMW 750i ///\/\ package with HRE 540 R 22x9 front and 22x11 rear with 255/30/ZR22 front and 285/30/ZR22 pirelli tires
My car is also lowered 1.75"

It looks nice but it also looks odd or maybe it's just the photo. Black wheels look great on white cars. I usually see similar patterns of this rim on truck wheels.

Thanks ,Lexamckenzie, but I doubt you see my wheels on trucks ...Trucks are too heavy for 3 piece wheels ( unless you put some thick ass tires on them lol ) and the 540R wouldn't look good on a truck at all... google " 22" HRE 540R wheels " and look at the images that come up in the search. Maybe you will see one truck with them on from a misguided soul but you mostly see them on Mercedes ,BMW , Audi etc..and I heard that some Ferrari's come stock with HRE ( with a price tag of 10k + it makes sense though...lol)
