Can I fit e70 X5M 299 or 300 wheels to an e70 LCI X5d?

Can I fit e70 X5M 299 or 300 wheels to an e70 LCI X5d?

I think the rear hub center bore is different on the X5d
Has anyone done this with an adapter? or machined the wheel bore?

No real answers, some suggest having the rear X5M wheels machined to fit the larger 74mm center bore ... and someone else suggested a spacer/adapter from ECS tuning (does that exist?).

Looking for a definitive answer from someone who has actually done this.

Maybe a link to this spacer/adapter if it exists

Or a reputable place in SoCal that can accomplish a perfect center bore out.

You need to have them professionally bored out (the rears). I believe the adapter is if you are fitting X5 wheels on the X6/X5M/X6M.
