What size NON RUN FLAT tire for 293 rims

[pmlnnrt]

I have purchased a new 2014 Z-4 - it will arrive with # 515 rims , which I dont like -

I am planning to put on the 18 inch 293 rims and want to know what size tire and mfg. (ie: Michilin Pilots ?) - (non fun flats too) to put on the car - front size and back size !

Once the Vehicle arrives in late April or Early May, I will sell the 515 wheels with the run-flat tires on them with very low mileage ! Any one interested let me know -

Thanks all for your help

I have 18" tires. Front 225/40R18, rear 255/35R18. I also have the Michelin PSS - awesome tires.
BTW, I don't even see 2014 models on the BMW website. How'd you order one and what did you get, specifically? Inquiring minds want to know!

I was told by my local Dealer ( Circle BMW - Eatontown NJ) - that March 1st. was the first day to order, I downloaded the prices (list) and options from Beimerfest then went to my dealer, and ordered the car - At first the dealer said they did not have the ordering information, but when pressed to look they found it, already have a VIN number for it too - so its in production.

I ordered another 35i, this time Auto Trans, Valencia Orange, Hyper orange inerior, Premium sound ( as the regular one sucks) Tech Package which includes Nav. Comfort access (keyless) comes standard now, it did not on my 2009. Traded in my 2009 Z-4 - got a good price, gave them the car right away so it would not be re-evaluated lower later. Saved a bunch of money too -

Go to the UK BMW site, too - it had photos, however now photos are at Zpost too

I did this because my old Z-4 was going out of Warante in July, and it would need tires, etc. - so am back in a new one - auto trans, better sound system and NEW interior too

If anyone wants the 515 rims with the run flats - let me know- price will be right ! Thanks Jparnes 1, for your information on the tires - appreciated.

Also - I have relatives in Rochester, they always said so much about Wegmans, now we have one near here - Great place ! Have been in Rochester a few times with my Z - not many on the road, which I like, unique car -

Valencia Orange - very cool. You'll definitely be the first one out there with that color. Enjoy!
