I find falkens extremely narrowly cut... They will look extremely stretched on the m5 alloys... my 2 cents.

I have the FK452 on my E63. The FK452 are narrow tires compared to other tire manufacturers e.g. 285/25/20 is equivalent to 275/30/20 Toyo T1R in terms of width. The FK452's sidewalls are reinforced which helps with cornering and blowouts.
Concur. They about 10 (width) less than other tires of the same size.

thanks again David

I was also contemplating these, the s drives, and the 555's. The s drives have a better review on discount tires website and are only $658 for a staggered 20" setup.
