    Default 18" x 8.5" wheel width all around?

    Should I get 18" x 8.5" for all the wheels front and back. Or is it better to have the rear at 10"....does 10" fit the e34. I was really interested in the Rondell # 58's thanx.

    Go with 18x8.5 and 245/40 tires on all wheels. That will offer the most neutral handling and still retain the ability to rotate wheels if necessary. The 10" rear wheel may require spacers and/or fender rolling depending on the suspension height and the tire width.

    Oh, but those 10" Rondell 58's have SUCH a nice lip...
