Will my wheels fit Z4M Coupe?

Hi there,

Wondering if my wheels will fit a Z4 M Coupé?

A set of BBS Le Mans 19 which I have taken off my old E39.

F: ET32 245/35

B: ET25 285/30

I guess the ET is correct, but is 285 too wide in the back?

Take care!

I think that will fit, the rears might actually stick out of the fenders tho.

Thanks for the info! We'll see when I get a Z4M.
I guess however, there will be a problem lowereing it (especilly the rear)..?!

what is the width of the wheels?

Matjo · 03-10-2008, 05:09 AM

Front: 8.5
Back: 10

I was guessing 10" by the tire size. I don't think you'll have a problem stock, but you won't be able to lower it much, if at all.

I don't really think these cars need a drop anyway. Cosmetic drops are only for cars with really big wheel gaps, like big sedans.

Ok! Thanks for the answers. I will let you know as soon as I get a Z4MC!

those will stick out the fenders. this guy had a problem with his RGR fitting 285s on the rears. Not to mention that wheel gap an rubbing.

he went back to a 265/35. Still aggressive. Im going to be running a 275 on a 9.5 wide wheel in the rears. Very common with our cars.

I hate you for getting 10 inches

I think it's strange that those stick out that much.. 285 must be too wide though..
The BBS for sale on the blue M roadster are 10 inches with 275s, looks great! I wonder if he has any rubbing issues tho'

MMMazing07 · 03-23-2008, 06:59 PM

275 you will be fine. thats a very common setup on M3s/Z4Ms with 245s on the front. 285 is realllllly wide

Ok, wheels on. No rubbing in the back, but at full turn they rub in the front! Will it get much worse if I lower it (thinking H&R springs)?
