Agree with both of these things. I think 245/45 will be good

I do value my good ole butt dyno, strangely accurate lol. Yeah, I was concerned as well with just the idea of adding 2lbs per corner of unsprung weight and the slightly larger OD. Luckily the new wheels I bought are lighter than the oem aeros; at this point instead of trying to gain range...

No, thank you for the reply! I appreciate all feedback. You think acceleration is negatively affected much from a 0.4” OD difference?

I don’t think I’d want to go that big in width on an 8.5” wheel. I’m not super concerned with a minute discrepancy in speedo reading, but I think the range hit from a 265 might be a concern.

I’m wondering what alternative (from oem) size tire is the best fit for essentially the oem aero wheels. Performance and aesthetics are my main concern, and I doubt a slightly wider or narrower tire is going to have a huge effect on range. I just bought some nice Martian wheels for my ‘21 M3...
