Does changing to a bigger tire+wheel mean that I need to have the speedometer recalibrated.
And can I get this done by any tire shop or does this too have to be done by the BMW dealership?

Lakeshorewheels is selling 18" m5 replica wheels for $649+70 (shipping).
Is this a good deal and are these wheels as strong as my current factory fitted wheels? I have a non-sport 525.

With style 124, do the tires have to be staggered?

Officially yes, 8J's at the front and 9J's at the rear. However, you could buy 4 front rims and put 245's all round...

With style 124 do you have to have run flats or will any performance tire like Michellin ps2 do.
