Widest 18" tire plus spacer for flared X5

new to X5's. i really like the look of some of the members' X5's with the plus sized wheels but i think i'm trying to stay with 18's as i'd like to get off the beaten path occasionally.. so i'd like something that i can deflate a bit and can maybe take a bit more of a bite than the super low-profile tires/wheels. i'm also looking to get away from run flat.

so... having installed the flares.. i'm wondering how wide of a tire i can put on the stock 18's and then add spacers to get that aggressive look and fill out the fender. currently has stock 255/55/18s. i believe wheels are style 210/8.5 inch, ET46. i can always put on tires and then measure the gap for spacers. or do i get different wheels with different offset?

sorry if this has been covered but i searched and searched...

See this thread.

P.S. xbimmers.com is mostly X5M guys, so may not always find stuff not related to velos tune, quarter-mile run, etc. Get in the habit of searching the "other two" (won't name them) bimmer forums for regular stuff.
