You can install them with the stock 20" wheels because the E70 M and F85/86 rotors has the same diameter and thickness. No need for spacers for clearance if you are installing them on E70 M, the only purpose (but not a requirement) for installing bolt-on spacers for the rear because the holding screw opening of the F85 rotors doesn't match the E70 M which means the rotors are being secured only by the oem bolts of the E70, if you have to install bolt on spacers, the bolts of the spacers will hold them in place. The front rotors can be held by the oem holding screw.
