Winter wheels and tyres - what size can you have?

Hi

Just got a new 23i M sport Highline last week with the 19"s. I live in an area thats been hit badly by snow in these last 2 winters and know that the z4 will be close to useless on these wheels so am thinking about winter tyres.

I'm thinking of getting some cheap used 17" wheels from one of the bmw forums and then some decent winter rubber but wondering what size the car can take? I assume the smallest it will take is the 225/45 R17 that the standard 23i comes with? Anyone got any experience of this?

Mines on 225/45/17 you will notice the difference as the ride is much better and certainly quieter with this size of tyre/wheel
