Another dumb question from wheel noob

I'm not exactly sure, but I heard the OEM RFT's for the staggered E92 are 18x8 in the front and 18x8.5 in the rear. If the wheels I want (VMR V701) are 18x8.5 in the front and 18x9.5 in the rear, will they still fit or will I need to stretch the tire or get different tires?

Sorry if this has been asked already. I couldn't find the right "keyword" to use in the search function to get exactly the information I was looking for. And thanks in advance for information regarding this.

Danny

I stretched my stock RFT (staggered/Zsp) onto 8.5 wide in the front and 10 in the back.
you're fine

The OE RFT's can work perfectly fine on our 8.5/9.5" wheels.
