BMW i3 wheels on an i8?
Hello! Does anyone know if this is possible?
I would love to try it out and see how much of a difference it makes in range and in fuel economy. |

I swapped from stock 225/245 to 245/275 UHP summer tires and saw no real change. In my case the wider tires may have had equal rolling resistance as the thinner stock.... also stock tires were the shit runflats. So ditching those probably lowered rolling resistance on the non runflats i installed. I don't think you would get much besides the hit on grip. Let us know what happens if you try. On an old saab SS I went from 205r16 to 235r18 and went from 33 average to 30-31 average. So its possible you mat
