Hey everyone. Please help!!!!!
I have 2004 545I with sport package, and currently have 2008 550I wheels on , I was wondring if I could put on 245-45-18 or 255-45-18 as my winter set.

I think you should stick with a fully square setup, if you're driving on snow. Including the wheels.
I believe you'll manage with the "oversized" tyre size though (245/45 R18).

I have Nokian 225/50/17 winters on my '08 535 sport, see sig. No problems whatsoever. Summers are the stock 245/275 staggered setup. I would have gone with black steelies, but I couldn't find any in 17s, and I, and you, will need at least 17s to clear the rotors and calipers.
