BMW Z4 M 18" Stock Wheels style 224??

Matty69 · 02-05-2011, 09:23 PM

I see lots of newbies get help from the experts, so here is my question. I got a wicked deal on BMW Z4 M 18" Stock Wheels style 224 with with 225/45ZR18 tires on the front and 255/40ZR18s on the rear.

Will these fit on my 2010 335xi, I don't have the sports package.

Thanks to everyone in advance.

Yes it will fit without any rubbing since you are on original suspension. The only issue is your tires are slightly taller than OEM spec. OEM spec would be 225/40/18 Front and 255/35/18 Rear.

And hence speedo would be wrong.

The tires a a number too tall, 225/45 vs 225/40, and I see the fronts are ET42, and that's a bit high. E90 OEM is ET34.

I just purchased a set for a 2006 330xi; should arrive in a week or so.

I concluded that you will need 10 or 12 mm spacers up front. Rear is going to be tight, but I hoping it is OK. Check back with me in a week to see how they are working.

Here are Style 224, on my 330xi. I used 12mm spacers in the front, no spacers in the back. The tires are the standard size from the MZcoupe which have a diameter about 1 inch bigger than the standard e90 diameter.

225/45/18; 255/40/18

I haven't driven it much yet, but it appears all will be good with no rubbing.

8x18 offset 42 minus 12 mm spacer - effective 30 offset.
9x18 offset 30
