These are staggered wheels: 18x8 ET42 at the front and 18x9 ET30 at the back.

Tyres are 225/45/18 front and 255/40/18 back

Would the above fit straight onto my Z4 SI coupe?

Yes, caveated with... Those are M profile tyre sizes so you may get some rubbing up front. They will look ace though

I was planning on changing those tyres. So they will fit but i might get some rubbing when on full lock?

They'l fit sweet & not always any scrubbing depending on suspension

My fronts are 8j et32 with 215-45 profile & zero scrubbing

With standard fit tyres i.e.

225 35 18 Front

255 40 18 Rear i think you should be ok

I currently have m sizes on mine which will be replaced soon and i only get slight rubbing on the back occasionally but otherwise they are all good

Swap to standard size tyres and you can lower the ride hight

quick photo to temp you (same colour)

Anyone ever fit 265/35, i need to order some new rears tyres for it Mot ant the end of the month. Seeing as the 224s are a wider rim the my previous 108s would this be an issue?

I'll probably be selling mine off my MC soon, so if you're looking for a set let me know.

Just to confirm something guys, 225/45/18 on the front, 255/40/18 on the rear. M-sport suspension on a E85 you'd expect slight rubbing on the front right?

Has your car been lowered?

It hasn't no

It should be ok then. Fouling normally occurs if the car has been lowered.

I got this on M sizes, dropped to standard zed sizes when tyres run low and it was fine
