I hope they fit without any rubbing since they were fine with the old 5 series but I believe this is a smaller wheel well. We will see what the outcome is and I will post my findings here. I think that the wider tires may provide some type of adittional steering firmness but lets see what happens.

When you pick up your new 2011 550i today I would strongly suggest that you drive it around well before you switch out the OEM rims and tires and make sure you don't have this pulling problem. Some dealerships will blame pulling on the different rims and tires you put on, and that may become a nightmare for you. Just my Two cents.
