help with tire sizes!

howdy members!

I am new to the forum...(actually quite new to everything as well) and I got some questions about the wheel/tire sizes... could you please help me out here !!

Im planning to get a set of 19" wheels for my 335 XI coupe w/ M sport pkg.

option1: 19x8.5 front + 19x9 rear
option2: 19x9 front + 19x10 rear

which of the options and whats the proper tire sizes for the option will work the best on the car w/out any rubbing problems ?


thank you so much!!

I am thinking the Forgestar F14

as for offsets... Im not too sure... yet is it safer to go w/ +35 front and +30 rear ?

We would need to know the exact offsets to determine the most optimal tire sizes.

Lets say if you were to go with Option 1, 235/35/19 front tires with +35 and 265/30/19 with anything above +27 would work fine.
