Hi everybody! Thanks to accute performance I was able to finish my summer wheels project. I have just put those on yesterday! genuine style 356 with bridgestones potenza re760a's. Wanted to stay as close as possible to oem wheel diameter. Tire size is 255\30\20 and 275\30\20 feedback is appreciated. As my car is rwd I had to use spacers. No vibrations whatsoever at least up to 100mph
Let me know what You think! thanks!

Thanks for replies! As for lowering not sure yet. For mtech kit wife's aprooval MAY be needed Those whels will actualy fit XI's better as offsets are high 33 and 44 so with a proper spacers stance will be a lot more aggresive. Suspension is stock bmw sport. I have 15mm in front and 20 in the back. Not a whole lot of room for bigger tires in front. For the rear i think 285/30/20 would still work fine. I wouldn't recomend running 245/30 tire because of the load rating which is to low. Again appreciate feedback!
