Wider Tires on OEM M3 Wheels?
Some of the guys on M3forums.com are mounting 245/40 and 275/35 on OEM 18" Wheels, is this OK?

I have some 245 front, 265 rears for track use that fit fine. Better balance than the 245/275 combo. But the 275 rears will fit.

You can run them, the big thing is to check the tire diameters or revs per mile to make sure they are similar in diameter.
Which tires are you looking at in those sizes?
