From AutoTrader (UK).
In episode 2 of Wheelie Bad Ideas, I put tiny 8-inch wheels on my BMW Z4 to test a theory most people would call crazy — that small wheels might look cooler, drive better, and even be more fun to drift than massive wheels.
To really see the difference, we lined it up next to a Lamborghini Urus on huge 22-inch wheels. Same road, completely different wheel sizes… and the results were not what I expected.
Is bigger always better?
Or have we all been doing wheels wrong this whole time?
Watch to find out.
