Hey there, I know it's been done before but I want to put style 230s on my 2010 323i.

The two options for tire setups I have are: Fronts 225 40 19 Rears 265 30 19.

and Front 225/35/19 Rear 255/30/19

Which would be better to run these on an e90?

Thank you for your help.

The 235/40/19 and 265/35/19 will give you a bit more aggressive look and not so firm ride, hit a couple potholes on a 30 profile tire and see how pleasant it is.

Surely a 40 profile at the front is going to be too big?

I run 235/35 at the front and 255/35 at the rear. However, in future I will run 265/30 at the rear.

the second option is stock e90 sizes and therefore perfect fitment.

the first option has quite a big difference between front & rear. front is way too big.

what you could do is 235/35/19 which is 1 size wider then stock.

the suggestion tcphoto gives is too big (both wide AND height) so your speedo will be off quite significant and possible rubbing
