What size tires? Please

SanT335 · 06-09-2016, 12:25 PM

*I am new* Here is the link to some wheels that I've been looking at http://www.ravspec.com/shop/rays-gra...-510-5-5x120-2 and i know they are 19in so they should fit but what would be the optimal tire size? Thank you guys! Car does have M sport suspension if that changes anything. I do plan on doing coils later down the line...

If you want a bit of meat, go with 235/35 and 265/30 if not go to 225/255

So I emailed the guy at ravspec and he said
"It’s a bit on the aggressive size for the rear. With coil over and roll fender, you can squeeze it in. This is a M3/M4 spec. We have done high 30 offset on your car."
I don't really want to fender roll right now and don't currently have coils (probably won't for a while) So should I pass? or will it just be a snug fit without roll/coils

You should be fine with 225/255 without a roll. It will still look good, if I were you I would just suck it up and roll the rears for the 265.

Would i be screwed later on when i put coils?

I don't think you'll need to do anything to fit the 265s. I have Michelin PSS 275/30-19 on 19x9.5 et35 lowered with stock camber and zero issues now.
I have an '08 e93 335i with sport suspension lowered 1/2" past stock rear.
