          740iL Tire and Wheel? 1998

          I plan on picking up a 1998 740iL lease return vehicle. There seems to be quite a few in the low to mid $30k range.

          A couple ?'s:

          1. These typically have the 17" standard rims that I would replace. Can someone assist me with what size 18" wheels would fit front and rear? I would like to be able to rotate them if possible, which means same size front and rear. If that is not an option, then what is the best 18x? size for front and rear.

          I found a nice rim on tirerack.com that I like, it's the AT Italia Riva 2pc that is also on special for $289 each in an 18x9.5. They recommend 255/45/18 tires. Would this combo fit front and rear?

          2. Are there other web site forums that are taylored for 7series owners (E38...correct?)?

          Thanks
