    How wide can I go on 17x8s?

    Recently I acquired a 2011 128i with M-Sport suspension/package, it has some newer(2014ish) 3 series black rims on it that are 17x8s.

    Can I put 255/40/17s on the rears without issue or will 245/40/17 be the widest I can go?

    Have you checked by the door to see the recommended specs?
