255/55/18 I've mounted on 7.5 to 8.5 rims without any issues but I would not recommend going thinner unless you run a thinner tire like 235/60/18.

I would not change the lugs. The bolt method like BMW uses is superior in numerous ways
But will cone seat lug bolts fit any kind of aftermarket wheels? that was my big concern about the whole thing.

And would anyone be willing to message with me privately to figure out which wheels will fit and won't? I have a list of wheels that I like compiled already.
