New Wheels

I just got myself CSL reps with winters on, they fit great so very happy, however a little wary of the fact my rears seem to be slightly stretched...
They're 18's 8j et 34 front
8.5j et 37 rear
They have 225/40/18 all round, my mv2's had 255/35/18 on the back so they look a little stretched compared to before...
I am thinking of swapping the tyres over and making the mv2's the winters though but go the hardtop on too and all in silver the new wheels look great! Unsure as to how I go about putting up pics as feedback would be nice :) but really looking for some reassurance on my current tyres change rears or leave them??

The wheels were taken off a 3 series
 
Thanks think I prefer the all silver! Hardtop and new wheels, go back to soft top and darker wheels in summer, although are my tyres ok for the rears?

The 225s on 8.5j rears are ok but ideally not what you'd choose especially for the Z4 which does have quite large arches .
As you can see from the pics there is a fair amount of gap around the rear wheels
Myself i would look for 245 40 or preferrably 255 40,s which will offer more rim protection & fill the arch nicely
