225's and 245's won't fit... well they fit, but they rub. I physically tried both. I have the E31 forged Turbines on my E34 and switched then onto the E28 for fitment.

I don't think rolling would help you're adding 20mm/1 inch to an already tight situation.

Also, any one ever try putting 225's on 840i rims (on this car - I know it'd fit on an 840i)? As is, with the 15mm offset, 205's sit really close to the edge of the rims (looks really mean - I love it). Will rolling the fenders give me enough clearance to shove 225's under there without any damaging effects? Thanks for entertaining the drunk guy.
