As stated in my previous threads.. l've just picked up a mint set of refurbed 17" x 8j style 44's which were never fitted to Z3's as standard but are reasonably common on 3 series cars.. l was wondering if anyone else has them fitted on their car because l don't think l've ever seen a Z3 in the flesh with 44's? Tyres are being fitted this week so l will post some before/after pics when thats all done..

I'm pretty sure I've seen somebody here that got their Z3 with them on.
They never came as OE on the Z3 but they sure should look nice on it :thumbsup:

On my current set up - style 64 16" X 7J ET45 wheels with 225/50 X 16 tyres l'm using 20mm spacers on rear

According to 'will they fit' these style 44 17" X 8J ET47 wheels with 225/45 X 17 tyres will be 14.7mm closer to strut and 10.7mm more poke on the outside rim.

Front wise that will be perfect, and I think the rear facelift arches will take the new wheels and the current 20mm spacers.. but if its too wide on the rear l be looking for a set of 15mm spacers if anyone has any they want to sell..
