9.5 et 30 front is pushing it :( effectively adding a 30mm spacer to your current 224s :?
 
No sorry.

The ad did make me smile when it states: "These alloys are Taiwan made so of excellent quality......". A good job they weren't made in a first-world country!
 
Go to something like "rimstyle" website and select your car and list the alloys they sell. I had a set from them awhile ago. With tyres and came balanced/inflated and with fitting kit.
 
I'll avoid those then!

It is frustrating when the specialists can't advise you correctly.

I'll take a look on rimstyle!
 
Hmm, another member, (i think KatieK? whichever member had some controversial cartoony stickers on the Imola MC) actually had something similar but more rounded spoke fronts - actually looked really nice when i saw at Evolve.

EDIT: perhaps not as similar as i thought:

Idd she got a lot of flack for the stickers for daring to not conform.. but the suspension/wheel setup was lovely.

Her car, good luck to her!

Its not as if she's done something irreversible.
 
Does the Z4M have different offset to E46 M3? i thought they was the same. James at barett motorwerks has them TS1's on his e46 M3 showcar

Seems Rimstyle aren't too hot on Z4M offsets either!

I found rimstyle good i got a set of beyerns for £1200 with new kumho I checked a few months later on their page. the beyern alloys were then £1360 without tyres so someone must have messed up. Are you looking in the other catergories not just Z4M you might find searching 3 and 5 series have good fit too. Mess about with the offset calculator first make sure their within boundaries. Its same with standard z4 if i search e92 alloys instead i can get better selection of alloys with wider fitment and good offset.

Yea ever so slightly by a few mm but as you highlighted its a showcar :wink: those rears are virtually out of the arch with stretched rubber & highly doubt you could enjoy a spirited run through the lanes in it :o
Guess if you could get a set to try first then fine but i wouldn't fancy spunking big ££ only to have them on ebay 3 days later :cry:
 
I've always liked the rota grid wheels. They look similar to the ones on the m3. Rim style do them in 19s to fit z4m, albeit in black. Iirc, they have a nice dish in the rears.

If you click on the technical info, the offsets for those are:

This is the available fitment for your car:
Intended Axle Size PCD Offset Notes
Front Axle 19 x 8.5" 5 x 120 ET40
Rear Axle 19 x 9.5" 5 x 120 ET45 Includes 5mm Spacer

They look like non-M offsets to me.
