Hi Z4 pros.
I have got to a point where I need to replace my current wheels, or buy a new set of rubber for them - style 200. I am very keen to move up to 18" wheels and I had my eye on a set of staggered alloys on eBay in the UK, but it is proving nigh on impossible to get them to NZ. As such I have now focused my attention on what is available in NZ and in the process, discovered that if I want black wheels, I am spoilt for choice. Unfortunately I am not and this means I have a more limited range to choose from.
I have settled on these but am not sure they will fit https://www.carid.com/stance-wheels/sf03-678f2105br15mspb-g-1414879920.html
Looking at 8.5, 18" ET35 running 235 40 for the front and 9.5, 18" ET35 running 255 35 for the back. Car is a 3.0 Si with standard suspension and no spacers. (In NZ, spacers are not overly viable as you need to put your car through compliance which adds another $600). I have put these through 'will they fit' with the following results;
Front - https://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php?width=225&aspect=45&diameter=17&wheelwidth=8&offset=46&width2=235&aspect2=40&wheel_size=18&wheel_width=8-5&offset2=35
Back - https://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php?width=225&aspect=45&diameter=17&wheelwidth=8&offset=46&width2=255&aspect2=35&wheel_size=18&wheel_width=9-5&offset2=35
It all looks OK to me but just wanted to run this by you all and see if any others have a similar setup and whether you have encountered any issues?
TIA all
