That would yield the wider tread and, I suspect, a compound somewhat better-suited to the car for which it was spec'd. I'm not that picky on the street, though, especially in a region where the back roads are generally pretty narrow.
Yeah, unfortunately BMW didn’t design the F22 to have wide tires and low et wheels. I have several sets of wheels for my e92 M3s and f82 M4, and I can’t fit a single set of wheels on the car (including high offset winter wheels!). I do have a set of 3-piece 18” Forgeline ZX3R but one isn’t holding air so I need to disassemble, clean, reassemble and seal the wheel; however, I’m too anal to clean/rebuild just one! I think they’ll fit perfect with F 235 (maybe 245) and R 255. This is my wife’s daily driver ��I’ll pay closer attention to tread width specs on the PS4S.
