Will 265/35/18 winter tire rub on the 335 E92/93 sport package in the rear? Thanks for all your experiences and wisdom.

Cheers,

AK

on style 189?i dont think they will rub since the rear is 8.5" et-37.but i heard 265 not suggested for 8.5" wheel.

it would be a 9.5 x 18 rim.

If that is +33 you'll be fine, if its -33 that will be a huge problem.

thinner is better..but i guess in van, you guys dont get much buildup of the white stuff

If you go up to Whistler, there'll be plenty of the white stuff.. ctgazer is right, thinner is better in the snow, after spending many winter in Boston, I can attest to that.

Lol... I hope its a +33 also. With a -33 you'll be needing some PTG wide body fenders.

Thanks funny enough I'm deciding on the V710 or the classic VB3 as my winter set-up. Just wanted to know if I could stick a winter performance 265/35 on the rear (everyone seems to be running that size on their summers) cause I spotted a good deal on them or suck it up and get 255/35 which I know will fit.
