Anyone know what sizes these came in when OEM?

My car is currently on 17" MV2s and I was debating looking at how much it would cost to change them back to something from the right era if I could find some.

However all I have found so far is 16" Style 35s and therefore not sure if that was all they came in?
 
That does indeed help!
I didn't know such a site existed!

So 16s it is then... presuming I would end up needing to re-calibrate the speedo as it's quite accurate for 17s currently?
 
There are several similar sites that list them all out. Very handy reference when browsing the classifieds for second hand sets of wheels. If you click the Z button at the top it will filter all the wheels fitted just to the Z3 & Z4.

I've not heard of anyone bothering to recalibrate their speedo after changing wheel dimensions. I certainly haven't when going from 16 - 18's!
 
Ah yes, quick google suggests the increase in sidewall size compensates for the change in alloy size resulting in the same rolling radius.

Question is what would look better!
 
The 32s are nice too!
 
Style 32 in proper staggered 17inch look incredible
Style 18 (standard z3 wheels) looks great

anything from a e36 M3 (same offset as Z3)

Style 24 look awesome (ive got a set being refurbed soon)
Style 22 (Sunflowers)
Syle 23 (Contours)



avoid 16's waaaay too small
 
What are the offsets on the Z3 out of interest? I have no idea!
 
Hmm, I'll probably end up keeping my MV2s I think at present.
Looking through the alloys I keep coming back to them.
Maybe get them refurbed into a shadow chrome in a while.
 
Choosing wheels is the best part of Z3 ownership!

Just about to whack these on mine
