The fronts fit with no issues. The rears, I had to have the fenders rolled (They actually used a dremmel or something and shaved the fender down and recoated it with weather sealant), and I had M5 fender liners put in. The fender liners are a question mark, because although there was rubbing without them, it is unclear weather the rubbing was on the fender or the liner. After I had the fenders rolled and liner installed, there was no rubbing. JIMMY, however, has put bigger wheel/tire combos on his car without the liners. (His fenders are rolled though)
