Bought a brand new set of gloss black 706M wheels/tires from a friend. My m550i is at the shop now trying to make these fit. Here are the issues we found. m5 tire package 275/35/20 +28 (9.5" wide) Front and 285/35/20 +28 (10.5" wide) Rear Michelin Pilot Sport 4s all around.

The tires are too large... Front rubbing the upper suspension arm under load (just sitting on the ground). Also with the Msport brake package, blue calipers, the inside of the wheel is right on the edge of rubbing ,2mm. Binding under load.

We looked at going to the OE m550i tire specs, got the tires in to tuck these beasts without rubbing...and this am we find the issue with the brake caliper clearance. hmmmm.. thinking 3mm spacers all around?

Or sell it off and just get some HRE's lol
