Your rear fenders most be much differnet than any other E28. I run 17x9 et26 E39 Radial Spoke on the rear with BFG 255/40 R1A racing tires. There is maybe 3mm of clearance from the top of the tire to the fender. My rear fenders are trimmed to the bare minimum. There is maybe 4mm clearance to the inside of the rear shock tube. Theres almost no way to run a 265 on the rear with a et15mm!!!!


my experience I ran 235 40's in front no problem 245 40's in rear with more room to fit 265's at one point i had on.....I guess every M5 is defferent
