I know that some guys have retrofitted M5 fronts/rears, and there was some Russian guy who was selling a special bracket to make everything bolt up correctly, but the bracket alone was pretty big money. I'd have to dig a bit to find the details, though.

I know that you can get cross-drilled 550i rear rotors (at least in the UK), so that will help match the look of the fronts, even if the rotors are still not as big as you'd like: https://www.buycarparts.co.uk/zimmermann/7517745

Otherwise, you could do an aftermarket BBK for the rear, but then you're getting into some big money as well.
Yeah I'm getting the 550i rear rotors/calipers. I got some r1 concepts drilled rotors to match the look of the front. Should be installing them tomorrow, I'll post pics.
