SO actually the gearing difference between 245/40 and 235/45 is actually only about 2.5%. I really can't see it making a difference. Wouldn't the 235/45 suit the rim (8.5" i think) then the 225/45? Looks like the 235 is 7mm higher then standard though, would that matter on a car running standard (sport) ride height? Thanks

If you have 8 wides x 17, then 235/40-17; if you have 7.5 wides x 17, then 225/45-17. Rule of thumb is 90% rimwidth coverage of tire's section mm width. Thus 225 mm should have an 8-wide rim; 235 mm should have an 8.5-wide rim. Factory BMW wheels are a bit on the narrow side with 7.5s and 8.5s available.
