I saw on the following on BMWE34.NET WORK website :

Will E34 M5 18" rims fit my E34?

Those are the BMW M Parallel (Styling 37 M).These are an e34 1995 M5 specific fit, and the parts # ‘s from BMW are the following:

Front: 36 11 2 227 931 (8X18) 20mm offset
Rear: 36 11 2 227 933 (9X18) 22mm offset

You can use 245-40-18 tire for the front and 265-35-18 for the rear.

If the four tires are 245/40ZR18 would there be a problem? Has anybody put this wheels in their car here? I have a 1994 530. Thanks for the help!!

they will fit. since the wheels are staggered, you wouldnt have all four tires being 245/40. i would go with the recommended tire size.

Soldado--make sure you are talking about the Actual M5 rims, not the e38 7-series M parallels or replicas. The offsets are different. 245s all around shouldn't be a problem regardless--the only time I have heard of people running into problems is with a 275 rear tire.
