Silver Green Metallic 330xi /w Gunmetal M3 wheels on 235/40/ZR18s

My 5-month old Style 68 square 17x7.5 setup's for sale now, if anyone wants 'em.

Picked up 2 sets of front M3 (Style 67) wheels...they were pretty nasty...as the first pic shows....took them to a local shop to repair/repaint them in gunmetal. I think they did a superb job.

Thanks to some folks here, I decided on 235/40ZR18s (I chose Conti Extreme Contact DWSes) - Just had them all installed today...thought I'd share.

No, not going to lower the car, either. I like the added clearance.

It's a 2003 330xi 6MT, sport/premium/cold weather, now with a Dynavin

Those wheels were nastyyy

Goodlookin XI and I also enjoy the added clearance

how much are you selling them for?

He got them for $515 delivered. I'll do $400 delivered anywhere in the CONUS. Will have pics of them later.

Already sold. Against all odds, per Fred The Puppy. Who still owes me an apology in every thread in this forum. Though I won't hold it against him, since that would be spam. His original post was deleted by the mods, but I've retained it for posterity to demonstrate how discouraging someone's sale because one doesn't agree with pricing is always a losing proposition.

speedster2333 has received the wheels and has informed me that he's very happy with both the speed at which I shipped them and their condition. Cheers!

GoeffS, I have an '03 330i sedan. Running squared up 225/40-17's on style #105 5 spoke rims (from a 325i sport pkg). I'm thinking of going up to 18x8.5" rims,(probably style 135) My question is this: Is 235/40-18 the largest you can put on the fronts, or do you think I could square up with 245/40-18's or maybe 245/35-18's all the way around??

Thanks!
Rob

Not exactly a tire expert here. My tires are slightly taller than factory, and only slightly wider, and I get zero rubbing.

That being said, on my 2008 X3, with 245s on the front (completely different 19" wheel), I get a little rubbing on the inner fender well when the steering wheel is turned to the left lock. Someone else would know better than me.

Why do you want wider than recommended?

@Geoff- ar your style 67 M3 rims 18x8 or 18x9?

@Sam- I just thought the wider 245's ll the way around would look better.

18x8 - They're 4 M3 front wheels, square.

Don't do it for looks. Wider tires are heavier and affect your gas mileage and handling. Unless you are racing, you don't need them.
