    New Wheels on the Z4

    One of my daughters stock wheels cracked, so I installed a new set of wheel/tire. Nothing special, but I thought it really fit the lines of the car and made it look way more aggressive.

    Front 19x8.5" ET35 with 235/35R19
    Rear 19x9.5" ET45 with 265/30R19

    The wheels are VMR V710 in gunmetal.

    Agree - they really look nice. I'm a little nervous to go with 19's as I'm afraid the ride will be a bit stiff. Would love some feedback after a month or so of driving with them.

    My Z4MC came with 19" CSL's from the E92 M3 and H&R coils/springs, they looked great but the ride was harsh.
    I sold those wheels, bought 18" CSL reps and with the extra 1/2" of sidewall the ride is better, it's not a night/day difference but noticeable and my 63 yr old back appreciates the change.

    The springs will be more of an issue than the tires. My 23 year old daughter has no issue with it.

    What are you going to do with the wheels and tires that came off it?

    I'll probably sale, but one wheel had a crack in the lip I need to get repaired.
