I currently have 2004 545i does anyone know if the rims and tire stated below will rub? Do I need spacers? Is there a particular offset I should have? Do I need to change my brakes? I just want to make sure I know everything needed when I upgrade to these new rims & tires. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Front tires are 245/35/19
Rear tires are 275/30/19
Rims are M5 166'

My Ride: 2008 550I LOADED, all options except HUD and NV
OEM 166's fit fine on your car, the spacers are optional - if you want them more flush with the fenders 5mm front and 10mm rear would be fine. Just need to check the tires, if they are directly from an M5 the front tires will not fit your car without rubbing (OEM M5 front tires are 255/35/19 biggest that will fit non-M cars is 245/35/19) Good luck, nice wheel choice
