i would like to put wider wheels on the front and back of my 01 M5, but love the OEM stock rims. can you get wider BMW rims in the same rim pattern? ie--rears on front, and new wider ones for rear.

thanks

Well, people have put on four 9.5" OEM rims; check archives for any general issues concerning rubbing and such. After that, putting on larger rear rims (not available in the style) would give back more understeer and make rotating tyres a losing proposition..

The 9.5" front rims makes the front look pretty agressive..
