Hi all, I'm Eli a pretty new guy around here as I just picked up my 2011 128i / 6sp manual / M sport.

I would like to install a square wheel/tire setup for easy rotations and a little more oversteer (or less understeer really.) From what I've been reading it sounds like a 17x8" ET40 rim with 225/45 or 225/40 has been working for people. Sometimes a 245? I plan on keeping the sport suspension for a while and even if I upgrade down the road I probably won't set it up any lower. If you have square tire advice, I'm all ears. I like the 17" and wouldn't even mind going 16" if there's options.

I may sell my m-sport wheels with run flats, or put winter tires on the M-sport stuff.

Also I read to disable TPMS I need to have a computer geek "code it out". Would anyone happen to know someone in Utah with those skills? Would a bimmer garage (not dealer) typically know what I'm asking for? I'm more of a chassis guy and don't really mess with electronics much. I think fuel injection should be the only electronics in a car....but here we are!

Thanks much-
