Wheel help
Hello,
I have a 2011 335i Sedan base. No sport or M-sport package. The rims I have are 17" style 284s with the stock run flats. I was looking to get 19" Matte Black VMR V710s (8.5 in the front, 9 in the back) and I was wondering if I'd have any rubbing, vibration or any problems at all with this setup. Also, can I have the new 19" tires last 2 years (they are going to be either Achilles or Mayrun) until the end of my lease when I can switch back to stock? Also will I need to get a new tpms or valve stem? How will this setup affect speed and gas mileage? Will everything run smoothly with the car with this setup? Thanks so much for your time any help is appreciated. Chimi |

just be careful of the square shaped tires from Mayrun. Those might have vibration issues. Might be safer going with Ironman tires.

Lower profile tires do tend to have less sidewall flex but nothing extremely noticeable in handling. As for ride shouldn't be a very noticeable difference but the 19's don't absorb as much as the 17's. Nothing I would worry about though.
