got the tire today and test fitted it. No problems on the back wheel, as expected. Front wheel fits and mounts fine but only has about 2 mm clearance between the brake caliper outer diameter and the inner diameter of the wheel. The regular wheel(18”) has about 3/4” in comparison. Wheel spins freely etc and no other interferences including at full lock both directions. I'm checking with Bimmerzone as to what they expect and is it OK? I wonder if the 3 series spare wheel might have less offset and more clearance? Since I have a 228 with standard(non-M) brakes, I would say that this will not work on M235’s. I'll let everyone know what BZ says.
