Can a 235i owner confirm? If so, that's disappointing.
From the standpoint of someone buying and using up at least one set of tires per year, I'm happy with a non-staggered setup. But I would like wider than 7.5".

There, you should see:
Tires and wheels
Tire dimensions – standard225/40
Wheel dimensions – standard18x7.5

From inspection in the showroom, I can confirm the 225/40 part (I didn't get to the wheel markings on the inside of the wheels).
