What rims are you rocking and do you have the same size in the front and back?

My goal is to eventually get E69 M5 sized tires and rims on here, but I obviously can’t do that when my fitment is this bad lmao

Front fitmet looks fine. You dont want it to poke out. Iirc a 550i should have wider wheels on the back and that could be the cause of your fitment issues.
Winter tires are more function than form. Do you have the same issue with the summer tires?

It’s also a base sedan, every base sedan I’ve seen has had bad fitment like this, they only care about fitment on the M5

I don’t have summers currently
Only came with winters when I bought it
I can probably fix the width with wider tires but how could I fix the camber?

You dont want camber on a street car.

Exactly, it’s my daily, I’m not ever taking this thing to the track
Stiffer shocks maybe?

No. If you want the rear wheels to sit further out you want different rims with offset or a set of wheel spacers. Spacers can have impact on handeling and smoothness and are illegal in some places.
Ignore the issue for now and track down some m5 rims so the car looks nice in the summer.
