M5 rear wheels and tires will fit if you roll the fender lips -- Dinan dealers should be familiar with the procedure

Try 265/35/18 Tyres could make all the difference and handling would not be hardly different. I put 275s on the rear for vanity reasons and the 265s were better handling in my case (275s were Michelins 265s are Dunlops).

Good luck

I put them on my 00 540i. Didn't fold the guards or anything else.

They went straight on. The only time they rub is when I have 4 people in the car and you hit a bump.

No Bumps , no rubs. No 4 people no rubs.

275/35/18 Pilots.
