I've wanted new wheels for my 2004 z4 3.0 for a while.

It came when the best wheels available for the car, but they were still just regular z4 rims.

I saw a z4 with the wheels off the new bmw M6, and I loved em!

I was going to wait a year, until I needed all new tires, and then buy them as a package.

But, I blew a tire, and found out the cheapest it is to replace it is about $400.

They are run flats, and I didn't want to put a new run flat coupled with a run flat that has only about 35% tread left, so i figured i would have to buy two.

Then I realized I didn't want to throw any more money at these wheels and tires.

I was going to buy a new set of wheels and new tires, but non run flats, which are only half the cost, have a better ride, and perform better.

Here is what they will look like on my car

The only thing that sux is that I now have non run flats and NO spare! I'm thinking that I'll literaly just tie a spare down to the trunk lid if I ever have to travel cross country. or maybe get a luggage rack for one.

definitely nice, but did you match the hub/bore sizes? Lots of people go to lengths to make it work so sometimes it's not a perfect fitment out of the box even if you see another with it.

Yeah, the Miro are made in the correct fitment.

Nice! Just keep a can of "fix-a-flat" in the car. Unless you blow out your tire at least it will get you home.

Nice. That's gonna ride pretty damned firm, watch for potholes and road hazards as you will be very vulnerable with that setup. That said, looks great!
