E39 wheel fitment

[Touge540]

I am trying to fit these wheels on with a 15mm adapter, http://www.upgarage.com/upgarage/sto...2163009256/163 . My question is will they fit and if they do will I have to fender roll.

Wheel secs are
Front 8.5Jx18 +20 / Rear 9.5Jx18 +35
plus the 15mm adapter

does anyone know?

hmmmm I just clicked on your link and it sent me to some Japanise site and to top it off it was in Japanise and the site was also broke

yes they will fit, no you won't need to roll fenders

just make sure the adapters are 74.1 hubcentric

They will fit but I have to believe the rear is going to need a fender lip roll and some negative camber.

Thanks so much for the help guys. Here is the good link http://www.upgarage.com/upgarage/stock/1/2/1012163009256/163 . Hey Jim@tirerack I will be ordering some tires for these soon.

Hey Jim what tire size would you recommend?

[Jim@tirerack]

I would run a 235/40R18 front and 265/35R18 in the rear.

Is there a reason for running 40R in the front and 35R in the rear? I plan on running the Continental Extreme DWS.

rear is wider than the front 265/40 would be too high

[Jim@tirerack]

The second number in the tire size is a percentage of the width. So as the tires get wider the second number has to go down to jkeep the height the same.
