True AND, different makes of tires are shaped differently on their shoulders giving you a better fitment with some moreso than others.

tires will require a high wheel offset. You just can't throw 295 tires onto any wheel. The widest possible tire is 305 with the right wheel offset.

I wear Magnums but I would really rather not. Kind of like wearing a rain coat in the shower, if you know what I mean. Odd question for a BMW forum though.
