Size 18"
Fronts are 8.5" Wide
Rears are 9.5" Wide
If they do work, what size tires would I need?

do they seriously not give any more info other than the width and circ. of the wheel?
fitment will depend on the offset and the bolt patterns available (I am assuming it is a 5x120 but ya never know)

AFIK those reps came in two offsets 35 and 15. Reading that they are a staggered fit they will probably have the correct offset for the e34... but definitely contact the seller to be 100% sure. Also make sure they have some sort of warranty. In talking to Mike at OCwheelwurx he told me many companies repped that wheel and some were real junk.

BTW that's Attack Eagles Touring on the site pics, before he owned it.
I have a set of OC's wheels on mine and although not staggered I still run a 265 rear and I love them. I get lots of compliments on them.

AFIK yes. Mike told me he sold the Touring to him with those wheels on. Maybe he'll chime in and set me straight if I have wrong info.

I am looking for summer wheels and tires. I'd like to not exceed $1500 total. Its hard to find wheels online that arn't junk and reasonably priced. I was lloking at some 18" staggered chrome M-Par reps from Factory Reproductions but was worried about the quality. It seems anything by BMW, Alpina, ACS, or Hartge are serious coin (out of my budget and would be damn close to what I spent on my 540). Does anyone have suggestions/recommendations given my budget?

Patience and perseverance. I paid $300 for my set out of Craigslist and there was another set for $500 with 80% tires not too long ago. I have a lot more time than money :(

Oh, I have time too. I won't be buying until May (I just think about stuff way in advance, haha.)

hellz yeah!
Mike never said who was making them for him, for obvious reasons, but I'm guessing they were Muvens as they are about the right distance away.
RVAe34/5&dime has reps on one side, and OE on the other. ;)
