So you already bought the rims that you are now asking the forum whether or not will be good?
I don’t understand why you would purchase first and ask later, much like I don’t understand most of your post. |

You will almost certainly break an axle if you push the car too hard into a corner or over rough terrain. |

Really? You think the structural tolerances of the M5 suspension are so close that additional corning force generated by a little wider wheel will brake it? It's not an aircraft! I doubt your assertion. I think you MAY however find that the track of the front and rear wheels may be oddly off. I'm not sure if the actual distance form the outside of the wheel to the inner surface of the rim at the hub is the same or different. If the rear hubs are actually closer to gather than the front to allow the wheels to all be lined up on the outside, then you may end up with a front wheel sticking out more than the rear. I double the drive axle will break.

Do not do this or you will break your car! I bought new wheels for my F90 and the shop I dealt with ordered the wrong size. On my way home after the install the car kept jerking back and forth on the road and the AWD malfunction light came on. Then the car put itself into RWD to protect the transmission because it was overheating since the front kept fighting with the rears due to the incorrect sizing.

You can use a wheel/tire size calculator (Google it) to calculate the new clearances. Pending the answer from Cream to my above question, I think you’d be fine. I have a suspicion he had mismatched diameters but I could be wrong. |
