My 2016 M235xi has the original Pirelli 225/40 R18 run flat tires that are getting increasingly noisy on most WA roads. I want to get a quieter ride tire so I’m thinking Of going to a non run flat tire. From what I have read I cannot go to a 17 inch wheel due to the brake size of the M235.

I'm running 17"s for my winter setup. I just went to Tire Rack. They let you know what fits your car.

Are these 18x8.5 ET40? We don't offer an 18x9 ET42 in the VS-5RS design but we have the 18x9 ET30 or 18x8.5 ET40.

Yes, that was a typo on my behalf. The post has been corrected.

No worries. They look great! I panicked for a moment wondering how a wheel size I didn't remember ended up in production without me noticing

Is it possible to run this size & wheel offset on ML10-RT? Haven't seen a F22 with it.

Yes, we're offering that 18x8.5 ET40 as well as our 18x9.5 ET58 in the ML-10RT design and they will be a direct fit on an F22 just like the VS-5RS is depending on the setup.

We didn't sample the 8.5 ET40/9.5 ET58 wheels because we had a limited number of sample units to bring over, but they'll work quite well. All the brake clearance validation was done to ensure they'll clear the OE brakes that you can get on the 2 series and some popular aftermarket options as well.

Yes! Our Black Friday sale is actually ongoing now. You can click my signature to get on to our site but all of our wheels are on sale currently. Those wheels are currently 20% off and we're offering free shipping to the lower 48 states. We have wheels discounted across the board with 15% or or more on forged Sprint and enduro line wheels, 10% off ML-10RT, and 20% or more off flow formed.

These look really good on your F22. An aggressive tire setup as well. Your order must have been one of the very first out of the door for us. I'm still waiting for my personal set of ML-10RTs!

If you take more photos of this setup down the line, we'd love to see them. I don't have many photos of F22s on ML-10RTs yet.

Yes! Love it. I'm late to the party, but do you have any more pics?

I just got my ML10RT in Race Silver today and I'm looking forward to getting tires on them to get them mounted. I'll be going with the same tires.

Front 8.5 ET40 vs rear 9.5 ET58
