e90 LCI w/ 19/9.5 et25 Rears...Need fitment advice

Lshaw · 03-12-2013, 10:44 PM

Hey guys i just picked up a set of BBS Rs-Gt. Specs are

19/8.5 et 33 Front
19/9.5 et 25 Rear

I plan on running 245/35/19 Pilot Sports on the Front and 275/30/19 Pilot Sports in the rears. I also have a set of 235/35/19 PS2 i received with the set as well.

I have searched for hours and i have yet to find a solid answer.
-Will i rub that bad or minimally? I need to drive this set up back to Indiana from Pa (450Miles) and then to Chicago where i can get my fenders roll
-Does anybody have a set up close to this that can help me out?
-What Tire combination would be idea for performance wise and help with under steer. I came from a 335xi so i used to run all square.

I need advice cause i keep reading so many different things and first hand advice or people who have run this set up would be most beneficial.

I am out of town and i wont be able to see the wheels/tires on the car until Saturday, a day before i leave....So let me know what tire set up that could help my situation.

Update for any one that cares...

Rubbing in the rears over bumps and dips. Ordered a set of 265/30/19 Bridgestone Potentates, so hopefully it will help

Update...IM rubbing in the rears!

Yikes...still the rub. ET25 is on the edge and too aggressive...I was considering that size. Thank you for posting.

Have you tried rolling and slightly pulling your fenders?

VMRWheels · 03-27-2013, 01:40 PM

I would recommend fender rolling out back.

About to mount some bridgestone 265/30/19 on the rears and see if it helps. I do plan on rolling my fenders, but waitiing until it gets warmer out.

You might have helped your cause in the rear if you had chosen 265/30/19's, but I don't blame you for going with the wider tires. I hope you succeed in getting this setup to work to your satisfaction!

Waiting to mount my new 265's in the rear. Just waiting for my front tires to arrive.

Mine are 10 wide with a 275/30 tire on an lci and 30mm offset. It will rub with someone riding in the back when over dips. Car is on original sport suspension. I think you will be better off with the 265 tire.

Lshaw · 03-29-2013, 06:29 PM

I just mounted the 265's. Still rubbing over dips however NOT as bad as the 275 tires.

I will have my fenders rolled eventually so that will def help.
