Winter tyres - will these fit my car?

Post by tonyg » Sat Oct 01, 2022 6:49 pm

I have an E89 sdrive 2.0. My current summer wheels are 225/35 19 (front) and 255/30 19 (back).
I am considering the purchase of a set of winter wheels all the same size 225/45/17. I don't really knows what this means but I'm told that they are BMW Wheels 8j x 17, offset is 29.

Are these likely to fit, is it ok for all 4 to be the same size. Will the speedo work ok?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Tony

Hi Tony, they should fit just fine. I've got a set of Style 290s from an E89 on my 3 Series and all four are 8J x 17 with 29ET and 225/45 tyres.
Coupes because stunning!

The only issue is the rear tyre offset..they probably will fit, especially if not lowered…speedo will be fine
We choose to go to on with this endeavour at this time and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…
