I picked up 4 2000 M5 wheels from my dealer (an M5 customer did not like the wheels, so had them removed). The wheels are: Front 18X8 and rears 18x9.5. The tires are: Front 245/40ZR-18 and rear 275/35ZR-18.

I have a 1998 528iA - the service manager indicated there would be no problem putting these wheels/tires on my car.

Some of the posts below have made me concerned about my suspension and tires rubbing etc. Do I have cause for concern?


may have to get the M5 fender liners which give more clearance, especially in the back (or is it totally for the back?). I'd give them a try over bumps with people sitting in the back to make sure they were necessary before I bought them.
