malc e is an unknown quantity at this point
Hi everyone
I'm new to this board and this is my first question.
I wish to upgrade the 17x8 M parallel type 66 wheels on my 2001 530 Touring to 18", possibly the M parallel type 37, using 8J-235/40/18 on the front and 9J-265/35/18 at the back.
I have seen amongst some literature from BMW that suggests 18" are not recommended to be fitted on the Touring. Could anyone confirm whether this is possible? I would also like to know if it is possible to fit the 9Jx18 width at the back or whether I need to stay with 235's all round.
Has anyone been down this route who could advise?

Malc
