Perfect match would've been 275 in the back. A lot of people are using 235/265 front/rear. No one really knows the tolerances of the xi system - all this talk about being 1% difference in diameter is just conjecture. Somebody read somewhere about this 1% rule about another car and suddenly it has become the rule of thumb for BMWs.

As far as I know, no one has really reported any problems on this forum with a 235/265 setup.

For offset, rim width is a factor too. In any event, I'm pretty sure the linea corse rims are just fine for BMWs. Go to the wheeldude's site and check out the specs. I think Linea only makes one set of offsets for our 3 series...
