9.5 et 30 front is pushing it

effectively adding a 30mm spacer to your current 224s

No sorry.

The ad did make me smile when it states: "These alloys are Taiwan made so of excellent quality......". A good job they weren't made in a first-world country!

Go to something like "rimstyle" website and select your car and list the alloys they sell. I had a set from them awhile ago. With tyres and came balanced/inflated and with fitting kit.

I'll avoid those then!

It is frustrating when the specialists can't advise you correctly.

I'll take a look on rimstyle!

Seems Rimstyle aren't too hot on Z4M offsets either!

Hmm, another member, (i think KatieK? whichever member had some controversial cartoony stickers on the Imola MC) actually had something similar but more rounded spoke fronts - actually looked really nice when i saw at Evolve.

EDIT: perhaps not as similar as i thought:

Idd she got a lot of flack for the stickers for daring to not conform.. but the suspension/wheel setup was lovely.

Her car, good luck to her!

Its not as if she's done something irreversible.

Does the Z4M have different offset to E46 M3? i thought they was the same. James at barett motorwerks has them TS1's on his e46 M3 showcar

I found rimstyle good i got a set of beyerns for £1200 with new kumho I checked a few months later on their page. the beyern alloys were then £1360 without tyres so someone must have messed up. Are you looking in the other catergories not just Z4M you might find searching 3 and 5 series have good fit too. Mess about with the offset calculator first make sure their within boundaries. Its same with standard z4 if i search e92 alloys instead i can get better selection of alloys with wider fitment and good offset.

Yea ever so slightly by a few mm but as you highlighted its a showcar

those rears are virtually out of the arch with stretched rubber & highly doubt you could enjoy a spirited run through the lanes in it

Guess if you could get a set to try first then fine but i wouldn't fancy spunking big ££ only to have them on ebay 3 days later

I've always liked the rota grid wheels. They look similar to the ones on the m3. Rim style do them in 19s to fit z4m, albeit in black. Iirc, they have a nice dish in the rears.
