So, why aren’t square setups as popular for the Z4 Ms?
Secondly, does the collective experience of users offer any guides for what 17 inch wheels can/should fit?
Thanks!

I run a square set up for the track and staggered on the street. The Square set allows you rotate to get more life out of the tires, but I also have much more camber on the front to accommodate the tire size. I prefer the square set up on the track as the car handles much better, but the 19" HRE's look awesome on the car.
Staggered - 9.5" 245/35/19 front and 10" 275/30/19 on the rear.
Square - 9.5" 265/35/18 to a 275/35/18
