    New tires for 18” wheels

    Hi, just bought a new set of wheels for my 2004 Z4 3.0, it has 17” factory wheels. The new set is a GF7 18” 8”1/2 front rims and 9”rear rims. I need help to choose the right tires for them. I’m not sure what tires to buy. Can some one help me on this? Thanks

    This, if your main goal is performance and grip-Summer:https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...I&autoModClar=

    But for New York, like Chicago, I would opt for ALL-Seasons:https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...I&autoModClar=

    Thanks, just want to make sure I won’t have any issues with the tires rubbing the fenders or other areas of the car.

    Thanks, but I’m really looking for is the specific tire sizes to avoid having issues with the fenders and other areas around the wheels. I want the car to look great but not compromising the performance.

    Those are stock staggered sizes, according to Tirerack,
    check the chart on your door jam for confirmation.
    After your last post,you should have been more concerned,
    and inquired about offset not wheel diameters.
