        I'm running 225's. But you should go with 975's.

              I would have thought a tire width of more than 225 - 235 would have been on the M3.

              I am running 225 on my 325es with out them being poked.

                - On 17" x 8" on the unmounted rims (right)
                - On 17" x 9" on the mounted rims (left)


                Brake harder. Go faster. No shit.

                      Very few choices in a 225/40/17 tire though.
