162's non staggered on 2008 328xi

Gunslinger1971 · 12-09-2016, 02:46 PM

I'm wanting to buy a set of the 162's because I like the look and want to put a non run flat setup on them. I would prefer to go non-staggered so I can rotate the tires regularly.

Would I be running into any issues with using the 8.5" rears all the way around?
Also curious on tire size recommendations. I wouldn't mind going up a size or so to get my speedo more in line with actual speed.

Car currently has factory 185's with the factory size tires.

8.5 square is fine. 235/40 or 245/40 will work too. 245/40 will put the speedo very close to exact.
