Question Technical Question

I need to install cross spoke 197 to my E90

Front 18 X 8 225/40/18
Rear 18 X 8.5 225/35/18

But my car is only 1.6 liters so with the 255 tire propably the car will not move

SO
can i install the four wheels with the same spec
which is 18 X 8 225/40/18
or it will be a problem with the rear size
Thanks in advance

Yes, you can use the 18x8" 225/40/18 in the rear too.

Ditto. Not a problem there. 225 works for both 8.0" and 8.5" wheels. Very tad bit of stretch on the 8.5".
