0.708% difference in diameter from front to back. There is someone in this xi section with a 328xi running these wheels with what ever the factory size tires are. Can't think of the user name though.

fits no problem. I had the oem RFT's for about 2-3k miles and switched over to non-rft's with 235 front and 265 rear. I autocross'ed once with the oem RFT's. This weekend will be the first for me on the non-rft Falken's
