New square setup fitted today

cb4 · 08-26-2014, 07:48 PM

I just fitted some 255/35/18s on my stock xi today. I went with the conti DW again because they treated me so well last time. I upsized from 245/40 to 255/35 this time.

These fit great and I would highly recommend this setup.

Offset is et34, 8.5 inch wheels.

Also note that conti DW are narrower than most tires so not sure this setup will work with all 255/35s. Check the section widths.

And also kudos to tirerack for another kick ass experience.

Just went with these - head and shoulders above anything else for a staggered summer setup. Seconded, kudos to Tirerack as always!

I totally get why you went with the square set up, and with an xDrive car it makes perfect sense, but with a RWD drive car staggered just makes for a better experience.

That said, I do have a square set up for the winter time

Enjoy the new rubber!
