Question about this wheel setup

westchester335i · 12-25-2014, 09:52 PM

Hey I am looking to purchase some wheels with the following specs,

Front 19x9.5 ET 20 (235/35/19)
Rear is 19x11 ET 25. (255/35/19) want to put (265/35/19)

I am LCI E90 and lowered on KW V1 with no finger gap all around and want minimal fender work. The 255 on the 11 is too much stretch so I was going to get 265/35 for the rears.

Will this setup work with Xi? I have done the math and its under 1% but any other insight is welcomed.

Thanks

265/30 19 would be the correct rear size to match those fronts.

With et25 &265's you might have some rubbing

I figured he wasn't too worried about rubbing considering the wheel specs he is trying to use.

LCI in the rear will rub a lot. You'll need to shave the rears and pull it a little bit. And it's gonna be 265/30 instead.

And what I meant by that is that obviously he will have a lot of rubbing and is hopefully taking measures to prevent that.

I have the same setup 19x10.5 et 25 with fender rolled and it is rubbing like crazy. With 11 width on LCI, let the rub begins.
