Found some 5-series wheels that I like. 8.5 X 17 w/ 13mm offset. Anyone know if these will fit. What are the basic parameters with no fender roll or scrubbing? Are 235/45's okay? How about 245/40's. THANKS

Both tire sizes mentioned are way too big. Go with a 235/40/17. Sadly our cars do not share tire sizes with the 5.

The 8.5" width might be a problem up front too, though the 13mm offset does not sound out of line.
