These alloys on a 335i M Sport: http://www.********.com/index.php?ro...&product_id=82

Front - 8.5 x 19 et35
Rears - 9.5 x 19 et35

Are these tyres ok?

Front - 225 x 19 x 35
Rears - 255 x 19 x 30

I'm thinking Continental Sport Contact 5P all round? Or put the RFT from MV4 alloys on?

i think on a 9.5J 255 would be ok but would run a little stretch! from my experience 265 sits perfect on a 9.5J

but if you already have the tyres they will be fine! they will fit! just stretched a little! lol

What do you reckon, rear 265/30 and front 235/35?

The last thing I want is rubbing if I change. I'll continue to use the RFT if I can, for now.

Will stretching them cause any issues? (apart from the lower profile look).

You will get no rubbing issues from a 265 on the rear mate but if you already have some 255's it will only be a tiny stretch, barely noticeable.

are the rims suitable with runflats as I understood the inner rims are different for runflats. I have the 235/265 setup and no issues, looks the nuts from behind as well.

What tyres are you using?

[P 5UML]

hey mate

shouldnt rub, i am running a 235/265 and i have a 12mm spacer on rear too! never had a problem with it (although my arches have a light roll/flare already)

but 225/265 would fit fine on them too! would look pretty cool if you dont mind a slight stretch

[C.J]

Thanks lads.

[philmots]

With the narrower tyre you'll lose a bit of rim protection too.

Push the boatout,go:

235/35/19
275/30/19

I ran that setup with Bilsteins with no probs.

[gaza01]

I've got the same size wheels and off sets as you. i've got 235s up front and 265 on the rear. I recently changed the rears to good year assym 2 after the contis only did 10k miles before being worn. The contis have a different look to the goodyears as I've tried to show.

good year assym 2 - less stretch


conti 5ps - more of a stretch effect


conti 5ps on the front

Anymore pics of this car mate? I'm assuming it's a snap of your own car rather than a library pic from elsewhere!

When I looked into this recently there seemed to be conflicting opinions from different wheel suppliers, I was advised that Runflat wheels are different as they have two lips on the inside edge and also they are spec'd as EH2+ The two lips secure the tyre to the rim if deflated..

Pic below is my wheel, I fitted my R/f to these 225F 255R and the stretch is quite a bit, Imo... Also it seems you cant get R/f in 235/265 but am looking into this further. If you are going to change to non R/f after your tyres are gone, then I would just bite the bullet and get new tyres with the wheels you want now. Hope this has helped.

Omg why u want to abuse those alloys with runfats? I use 235/35 265/30 on 359 from Chris

Chris which alloy will have a more concerved face, the Avatgarde's or the original M359's you normally sell?
