those sizes seem a little risky on a Z4. some of us using those size tyres on E90's already having issues over humps. potential rubbing issues.

Re: Awaiting my Z4

noted. the jap told me they running 225/55 on those rims and its perfect flush with no rubbing. you reckon its possible?

that size sounds more plausible. Z4 wheel arches are smaller then E90. and if E90 just cleared those wheels, i worry for the Z4.

having said that Ac Schnitzer thinks otherwise. have a look at this doc. proceed at ur own risk. hehe

the 9.5J ET37 should goes to the rear with 265/30. and 8.5J can take 235/35. similar tire size but different offsets. that cool.

Re: Awaiting my Z4

BMW is always on the safe side. their OEM 19-inch light-alloy V-spoke 296 wheels is 8 / 9 J x 19 inch with 225/35 R 19 tyres at the front and 255/30 R 19 at the rear. that is exactly the same setup up for E9x too. so basically you can run 235/35 and 265/30 as you wished. let me find out the Z4 wheels offsets of style 296 to comfirm.

RE-V 044 19×8.5 ET32 5/120.0 PFS F
RE-V 045 19×9.5 ET37 5/120.0 PFS R
