I'm trying to figure out all my tire options for these 18x8 and 18x9.5 740i M-Parallels I have so I can run them on my '93 525i. The reason I'm trying to figure out all the options is because they're so expensive, I might have better luck finding a deal on one size over the other. I've asked in the tire and wheel fitment thread but I'd like to hear from those of you who are actually running them. Please also note whether you had to modify the fenders, whether your lowered, what you're lowered with, and how much. Pics would also be beneficial :)
Thanks!

fronts are 235/40-18
rears are 265/35-18
No modifications, no spacres, no rolling
lowered with sachs sporting kit which I believe is the eibach/boge sport combo
I run Nexen N3000 that I got for $450 shipped for the set

Wow, those 265's in the rear look hot! Thanks for the input.

I have staggered 18" Z8 wheels, 20mm offest in the front and 22mm in the rear. I use 235/40/18 fronts ande 265/35/18 rears. Tires are Falken Azenis ST115 which are very quiet and handle great. Reasonably priced too which was a big factor. H&R Touring springs, Bilstein Touring front shock inserts.
