Any E39 people with Miro 111 18" staggered wheels? Need tire recommendations

[Daveingigharbor]

So I really like to look of the Miro 111 for my 2000 540i 6 speed with stock sport suspension and just ordered a set on sale at Next Level Motoring. Bought the 18" x 8.5" fronts, ET 20 and the 18" x 9.5" rears, ET20.

Anyone else have this setup and if so, what size tires are you running that do not require modifications or cause rubbing? Thinking the fronts are no brainer, 235/40 18" (M-Sport) or 245/35 18" (M5). Big question is what to get in the back, 255, 265 or 275 wide and then match the diameter of the fronts. I am a bit worried that the ET20 and the 9.5" width may push the wheel out to close to the fender.

Part of the goal was to have nicer looking wheels than my style 32s, part of the goal was to duplicate the 2003 M-Sport wheel/tire setup and the last part was to get better traction.

Thanks!!!

So at this point I have no responses to anyone running the Miro 111 setup. Thought there would be a fair amount of people with these.

My car came with the wheels pictured in the first shot. They are staggered style 32, 8" and 9", with 235 and 255 width tires.

Second shot is of a set of square 8" x 18" wheels I got that had been on an Z3 and I needed adapters to get to ET 20. Like the look and I need to get different tires as these at 225 and I need to go to 245 width.

The third shot is what the Miro 111 should look like on my car, although the car looks to be lowered.

Any an all comments are welcomed.
