Just curious if OEM M6 wheels will bolt right up to my 550i. Anyone know? Will I need to make any modifications to make it work?

Yes. OEM wheels will bolt right on. You will need to switch rear tires though - 275's in the rear are what most are running with these 19" wheels.

Rims yes, tires no, you'll have hard rubbing issues on front and rear fenders. (with stock M6 tires)

front: 245/35/19 and rear: 275/30/19 or 285/30/19. The rear depends on your preference.

Hmmm yeah the Front tires are sized 255/40R19 and rear tires are sized 285/35R19. Are you guys basically saying these tires are a waste then? No way to fit them?

Afraid not. The tires are wasted unless you can sell them separately.
