2003 M5's include full maintenace for 50K but I can't find any detail in my manuals on what's included in that. When I picked it up, the dealer said it includes everything -- even tires, but "under the tire manufacturer's warranty" ??

On the website I find:
3: Full Maintenance Program covers all factory-recommended maintenance, as determined by the Service Interval Indicator, for 4 years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. Full Maintenance Program includes items that need replacement due to normal wear and tear, provided wear and tear exceeds BMW specifications. This includes items such as brake pads, brake rotors, and wiper blades that are not covered by the original New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Any adjustments required due to normal operating conditions are also included. For exclusions and limitations, refer to the Service and Warranty Information booklet that came with your new BMW, or see your authorized BMW center for details.

What have people had replaced under BMW's full maintenance, or does anyone know in detail what it covers?

As instructed above, it might be best to call the dealer and talk to one of the friendly service advisors or better yet the service manager. Brakes, wiper blades and belts are general items that can go during the warranty period. This is the case with my 530i anyway, as per the service advisor.
