I am purchasing a set of the stock style 124 staggered wheels for my car, these are the wheels that come on the car from the factory with the sport package which my car does have. I am NOT a fan of the Run flats but the wheels come with a set of virtually new Potenza RFT tires. I figured I would run them for a while. My car does have a spare tire.

So are the RFT's ok on my 08 with sport package? Or is there a suspension issue? I'm unsure if they came with them in 08.

Thanks!

I have the same rims and sport pack with potenza runflats . Already cracked one rim in 2 weeks ! These rims are prone to cracking and the runflats increase that chance. Also I have to say they are very rough to drive on , every bump is felt and they wear faster than non runflat tires. I'm looking to swap them out ASAP !

As long as the tire sizes and/or combination of sizes front and rear are listed in the owner's manual you are good to go. The run-flat or not is your choice.

The only good thing a run flat is for is if you have a flat... HA! Other than that they are nice when new, but after a little wear they are rough, noisy and you start thinking why did I spend that much on these tires?

I know they suck, that was not the question. But they are virtually new and came on a perfect set of style 124 I bought and are essentially free so I will run em till I hate them or winter, whichever come first.

Yes they will fit. I have a 2008 535i with ZSP so I'm running the 124 wheels. 275/35zr18 in the rear and 245/40zr18 up front.
No experience with those run-flats but when I bought my 535i in 2011 it had the stock Dunlop run-flats. Luckily they were already way worn down so I had an excuse to upgrade to some Michelin PSS! The ~5,000 miles I drove with the run-flats were awful. It was a totally different car when I fitted it with Super Sports.
