18" M Line wheels and tires

The 2014 X28i M line I just bought has 225/45/18 tires all the way around. I thought the M Line had wider tires on the back? Does anyone know the Oem 18" M Line wheels and tire sizes?

M Sport package has 225/45/18 in the front and 255/40/18 in the rear. It looks like the image attached. Sport line has square setup.

My 2015 M-sport 35i has 18 x 8.0 225/45 tires all around but optional sizes are 18 x 8.0 front 18 x 9.0 rear (225/45 frt and 255/40 rear) or 19.0 x 8.0 front and 19 x 9.0 rear (225/35 and 255/30 respectively). The optional sizes are summer performance tires while the standard size is all-season. I went with all-season based on my location and better wear.

The AWD will typically come with a square set up whereas the RWD may not. Obviously variations exists.

In US M Sport has three options for wheels for free. That's where all differences come from.

Nevermind, well covered. Staggered setup optional on the M-sport. Looks better, but is only going to add to the understeer. Go big, all around. Haha

I ordered the staggered 8 x 18 and 9 x 18 staggered setup with Pirelli P7's summer performance.

They are very good in rain and long wearing, but the suspension had an annoying sway that I got rid of by putting 12mm spacers on front only.

That also got rid of some excess understeer, so car runs great on track or street.

So, In your case, just put stickier tires all around like Michelin PSS, and you'll get your rear traction.

They are long wearing and have great wet traction as well.
