Thanks you! I totally forgot about those calculators. So i guess i am just left with worries about rubbing from either the inside or outside with the wid tires. Offsets I am looking at is most likely around the 15F and 23R

BTW, is it safe to use the M5 wheels/tires on my Non-M?

Thanks, I went with 30% tint all around and it surprisingly ended up darker than expected considering I have a light tan interior. I didn't want any issues being pulled over which is mostly why I didn't go too low on %.

Very nice

With the */35 Front and */30 Rear tires, our odometer will be off by a bit, do you guys know if that will trigger any issues? (eg DSC etc).
