With 19" 255 in the front and 285 in the rear or would the fenders have to be rolled? 
I know they are basically the same design as the 18" wheels which will be on my car (sport package) but I think 1 inch bigger just looks a bit better 
My thought is it wouldn't fit but I am not completely sure.
Anyone who has some more detailed info on this (yet) ?
Thanks guys

You can get the same rim's as the standard sports on e-bay in 19". I don't know the quality thought. Crap shoot?

I am almost postive that 19's will fit.. jsut cause they are the M ones don't really make a difference... I have 20's on my car and they are fine no rubs well once but thats a long story... but I am sure 19's will fit no problem...

The offset for the front wheels might be a tad off..the M5 front fenders are wider. The rears should fit, the fronts may be pushed outwards too much.

The M wheels will fit, but are you talking about the wheel/tire combo or just the wheels? I have 19" 'M spec' wheels on my 545 that I plan to put on my E60 M5. You wouldn't want to use the same wheel/tire combo though.
