I found this wheel (Style 235) from the F01 (7-series) and F07 (5 GT) selections.
See pics below.


Compared to the 331 wheel for the F10 the specs are:

F10 Style 331: F 8½? ET 33 ? R 9? ET 44

F01/F07 Style 235: F 8½? ET 25 ? R 9½? ET 39

The tires I will buy are F 245/40 and R 275 or 285/35-19?

And the questions are:

a) Will the F01/F07 Style wheels and tires fit under my new F10?
My calculation brings out the front wheels by 8 mm and the rears by 11 or 12 mm,
compared to the F10 331's.

b) What do think about the Style 235 wheel overall?

No idea about the specs, sorry Ric, but the style of the wheel looks really good. I like it, probably the best 19" wheel for the new BMW's

Come on. There must be more opinions.

F01/F07 235 wheels (compared to F10 331/332's) out front 8 mm and rear 11,35 mm (inward 1 mm).

If so i would go for style Individual 228.

Style 235 wheel for the F01 and F07-228.jpg

8,5x19 fron 245/40R19 ET 25 Package will stick out 8 mm (0.3'') farther. Acceptable for most cars
9,5x19 rear 275/35R19 ET 39 Package will stick out 5 mm (0.2'') farther. Acceptable for most cars. OR
9,5x19 rear 285/35R19 ET 39 Package will stick out 10 mm (0.4'') farther. Acceptable for most cars.

or style 252.

I don't really like it. It works fine on the 3-series (similar design but different "id") but it makes the car looks a bit too bland for me.

This way the car will get the boring 331's.

235 is beautiful. 252 is very cool and looks great (wheel alone), I wonder how would it look on F10 though.

The offsets looks small enough, it should fit.
