I changed from the factory wheels to the 293 wheels and Michilin Pilots - not cheap, but the best thing I ever did - also bought the kit to fix a flat for peace of mind. The ride is 120 % better than my 2009 Z-4. You wont be disappointed ! Btw - I had these 293 wheels on my 2009 as well - never had any problems with cracking either !

I believe you mean what tires would fit onto your wheels? If you have the OEM 19s, and presumably the 296 unless you have the IS, you'll want 225/35 for the front and 255/30 for the rears.

There isn't a "non=rft" wheel. all wheels work with all tires - just get the right size.

If you are changing wheels, I personally believe going down in size to 18" is ideal due to the reduced weight working better with the adaptive suspension and as a bonus the tires tend to be a bit cheaper than 19"

The MORR VS8.2 are always a good choice.

Customer of ours. I believe the custom color is a vinyl wrap.
