New wheels on my 05Z4 3.0

kmancars · 04-23-2009, 12:08 AM

I am planning to drop to 17" Beyern wheels form my 18s to soften ride.(Sport Suspension). Can I run say 235s on all four? If I do not run larger wheels at rear what effect will I get. Thank you fellow members.

Yes you can run 235's all around. Stock for non-Sport is 225/40/17 all around on 17x8" rims (ET47) and 235's will fit just (I'm assuming the Beyern's are the same width and offset as stock). Going from the staggered Sport configuration to unstaggered will just reduce the Z4's understeer a bit.
