E36 Style 30 wheels on a Z4?

[Chris_D]

Hi all,

Well, I finally found my Z4 after 3 months of fruitless searching. Going to inspect/buy next week in sunny Coventry. Exciting times!

Question: I'll be looking to utilise some bits n bobs from my dearly departed E36 coupe on the Z4, such as a set of winter tyres which are mounted on the Style 30 wheels that originally came on my E36. (They really do make all the difference in snow and ice!)

But will they fit? Offset, clearances etc?
I've had a scadge around the internets and I'm none the wiser TBH. I remember reading a post here a while back with recommendations to a forum member who is the go-to guy for all things wheels. Care to point me in his direction anyone?

Style 30 spec:

As you can see from the webpage these were also specced for the Z3 so I'm rather hoping they will fit the Z4.

I'll open the floor to you guys. Thanks in advance!

I dont know if they'll fit a facelift 3.0si with the 325mm brakes, but I think they'll fit all other models. (I dont know which z4 you have)
ET value is 46 where most stock z4 rims are 47 so that wont be a problem and the z4 has been factory fitted with 16" wheels (style 102 and 104). It looks really small but if you just want to use up the old winter tyres its ok.

Thx Guido!
Yes, the style 30's with winter rubber used purely for practicality/safety reasons. Aesthetics can take a back seat during winter months.
