So I'm looking to change my tires for my 128 that is on stock brakes, stock control arms (for now) and stock suspension.

coming from Continental DWS06 with:

Front 18x7.5" 215/40-18" 24.77" ET49
Rear 18x8.5" 245/35-18" 24.75" ET52

I live in the northeast so I would like to keep my all seasons.. I do so occasionally drive in the winter months.

On my wheel size, would it be possible to size up to 225/40/18? Can I also go a little larger in the back? It's a staggered setup (albeit small) if this makes any difference.

Any other sizes one might recommend without changing the wheel? (i like the style wheel my model comes with, Style 496)

I was also looking at Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4s as well... any opinions on these or should I still stick with the Conti's?

Is a common tire size upgrade on the e82. And you won't need to worry about any rubbing with those offsets
