my researching suggests you will be super tight on ET27 with a 265 profile, will come down to the tyre profile if its going to rub or not.
stick up a post in the wheels and tyres section of E90 post, loads of people with experience state-side that will have no doubt tried that combo. |

The rears on my summer set up is relatively similar the spec you said, apart from they are in 18s. I do get a little bit of rubbing on uneven surface at motorway speed. I think the shape of the sidewall may also have an impact.
But there are space under the arch still, for sure! |

I've got a e91 lci on h&r with 8.5j et38 235/35/19 on the front and 9.5j et27 rear 255/30/19. No rubbing at all even with the car loaded.
Mines seems like I can go wider at the rear Last edited by G-10; 02-26-2014 at 10:27 AM.. |
