cj_eds, I'm pretty sure adding any further options to the poll will clear off the existing results.

Re: Summer tyres - a quick poll
My BBS CK's are 18 x 8 so it's 225/40/18 all round, as for the staggered set up, the standard wheels are 225/45/17 on the 2.3 and 3.0 or 2.0 and 2.8 on the 3.5 its 17 staggered and then of course the M sport or option wheels are all 225 front and 255 rear.a11y wrote:is the E89 non-staggered then sars? Or is that non-standard sizes you're fitting to your BBS?
I've found that with the 225's on the rear traction is considerably better in the wet than my old 2.5si with 255's, in the dry theres no noticable difference except less road noise with the smaller foot print
