Since I can't find any Morr VS8.2 wheels to replace my damaged one I have to change my wheels - I'm leaning toward M5 wheels. I'd like to go OEM due to problems with the replica ones. What will it take so they fit correctly on a 550i? Spacers? What size tires can I safely run, my car is lowered with ACS springs. I'm currently running 255/35/20's in front and 295/30/20's in the rear. Can I go safely go that wide without rubbing as I know the M5 wheels have a different offset than non-M wheels.

Anybody? I know I just can't bolt up a set of M5 wheels with the factory rubber - what do I need to do to make these work?

Really, they'll just bolt right on with the 265 tires in front and the 295's in the rear will clear? I thought the offsets were different on the M5.

I guess you're talking about the 343M wheels. Just make sure to get some from a M5 and not a M6.
The ones from the M5 are 20x9 ET32 and 20x10 ET34, while the 343M from the M6 are 20x9.5 ET31 and 20x10.5 ET19.
