New winter set for M4

heaven · 08-13-2015, 11:44 AM

Hi, guys
I am new here, and I'd like to order a winter set for my M4. I am not even sure if its a good idea to have the following set:
All 4 18x8 wheels
front: 225/45/18
rear: 245/45/18
My concern is that will the wheel/tire width too small? Or looks wired? or I can go all 245/45/18 but seems like front isnt gonna haven enough room?
Thank you.

From what I have read not all 18's clear the calipers. You need to be sure before purchasing.

I have been told that my old 335i wheels, style 187's, will not fit on my car.

Beyond that, 18's won't look weird.

I used the configurator on tirerack.com as I believe it eliminates wheels that will not fit the M3/M4.
