Two wheels side by side. On the right a 245*45 tyre on a 16 inch wheel (which I use on the rear) and on the left is a 205*55 tyre on a 15 inch std M3 rim .

And boyyyyyyy is that 16 inch wheel and tyre combo HEAVY. Its a 16" * 9" wheel.

what is the difference like when you drive on them, top speed, accelleration, handling?
I have 225/45 on 16x8's and have thought about using 245/45's
thnx, CR
