I currently have 18" Ellipsoid's on my Z4. Just discovered the one on my front passenger side has a slow puncture which i think is down to a crack in the rim. I'm thinking of changing to some CSL reps, im trying to decided if to go for same size all round or have wider wheels, will i notich much difference? maybe a stupid question but i dont have a clue when comes to offsets etc. :roll:
Cheers
 
As you are probably aware most people on here move away from runflats due to the poor ride quality.
You can easily go to 8.5'' fronts and 9.5'' rears on an 18 or 19 inch rim without issues. The lower the offset the further out the wheel will be positioned on the hub. Your current offsets are 47 and 50 as was mine.
I have gone to 19inch wheels with 8.5s and 9.5s with a 35 offset all round without problems. I ditched the runflats and even with my current set up the ride quality is heaps better.
 
Yes i got rid of the run flats on my first Z4 and it was alot nicer drive than my current one. Do you recommend sticking to wider rears?
Thanks for your help
 
Thanks i'll do that then, just need to decide what colour and where to get them from. Alot of them are 18" x 8" et34 front and deeper 18" x 8.5" et37 rear. They fit ok?
