New Runflats On Stock Wheels

steverequiem · 02-20-2006, 12:38 PM

I just ordered a set of 4 Dunlop Winter Runflats for my 325i with sport. I'm having a shop mount them, and I was wondering if it would be a problem to switch the tires on the current 162-style wheels, or will I need to get seperate wheels for them. The reason I ask is that the wheels are not the same size in the front and back (17 x 8 front and 17 x 8.5 rear). Will having 225/45's on both wheel sizes work?

Yes you can fit a 225/45 on an 8.5" rear wheel.
