I was thinking about swapping out the stockers with a pair or m5 or m6 wheels, does anyone know if they will simply bolt on and live happily inside a 545's wheel wells?

You can also do 285/30 19's in the rear with the 166 M5 wheel. You can get a 166 M6 wheel that has a different offset but the biggest tire then is the 275.
