IMO 'big' or 'wide' wheels shouldnt be a issue...assuming you are getting OK tire mileage with no gross alignment/wear problems.
Just from my gut, dead diffs seem pretty rare, but not crazy rare. Bad luck....
$700 seems like a lot for a buddy.
Maybe call around and see if anyone can rebuild yours.... here in the US, diff upgrades and repairs is a popular thing outside of BMWs...but you can usually find someone to work on them.
Edit- where at in Oz?
