I am using the calculator that is very useful but I'd like to know if a set of aggressive fitment wheels I'm looking into would fit or not.

2011 335i with M-sport package

Front: 19x8.5 offset 25 235.30.19
Rear: 19x10 offset 35 275.35 19

Calculator says :

Front: 3mm MORE clearance on the strut side, and the outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 15mm

Rear: 17mm LESS clearance on the strut side, and the outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 21mm

Tires already fitted on the wheels: 235-30-19 and 275-35-19

I really don't want to get into fender work...

Thanks guys!

You might occasionally rub at rear or not, its right at the limit. For the most part i think it's fine with m-sport suspension. You could add some camber if it happens to rub. Front is not issue at all.

E90pre-lci with 19x10 et28 and 265/30/19. Your wheels will be 1mm more out. I assumed you have E90 lci?

Thanks for your answer! Nice car btw!

Yes it is a E90 lci. Is there any difference in clearance between pre-lci and lci?

Yes Lci rear track is 8mm/side wider, but already took it account. Basically et35 at lci will extend to same place as et27 at pre-lci.

The rear will likely rub if you have any drop at all . It is too tall.

Are you absolutely sure your tire sizes are correct ? Normal staggered setup is 235 35 19 and 275 30 19 . Your proposed setup has an 8% rolling diameter difference.

The guy who is selling those wheels and tires had it on a e46 m3 .

According to the calculator, it is 5% larger which is a lot to me.

I have oem m-sport suspension. Thanks for your input! If there is any chance it would rub, I wont buy it

Yes there is a small change that it could rub, but fender roll would fix it. Also i'm pretty sure that the tyre sizes are 235/35/19 and 275/30/19

+1 I would make sure those tire sizes aren't mixed up. I don't think it should rub as long as the tire sizes are good.

Those are the dimensions previous owner put on the wheels... Sucks... So I will pass on this deal..

Hey Guys,
was wondering if you could give any insight - wanted to go square for new wheel set up but came across these wheels at a decent price that I wanted to consider - Would these fit on my 2010 LCI E90 328xi - they came off of a 2009 LCI 335i. I just picked up my car about a week ago and still have the stock 16" wheels that are just not cutting it. Here the info:

Wheel specs are:
Front alloy wheels: 18x8" ET34
Wheel part number: 36118036933

Rear alloy wheels: 18x8.5" ET37
Wheel part number: 36118036934

Tire specs are:

18" Pirelli P-Zero Nero All Season Tires
Fronts are 225/40/18
Rears are 255/40/18

I know the fronts will fit just based off of the wheels I've been looking at off of tire rack but I wasn't sure about the rears and if that would affect my AWD.

Thanks

255 35 18 would be the proper size, expecially if you are xi...

I must be a typo, it doesn't make sense, who would run a 8% difference between front and rear, don't pass up on the deal, just confirm with him that he has 30 and 35 (profile) backwards. Should be 35 front and 30 rear, everything else is fine. I bet he's just mildly dyslexic and swapped em without realising. If what I suspect IS the case, it's absolutely ideal stagger for an XI.

I have a 335is with 19" 313 rims, with the original 225/35/19 and 255/30/19 Bridgestone RFT. I live in Michigan where the roads are always questionable so I was wondering if I would have any problems putting a 265/35/19 or 255/35/19 in the rear for more sidewall protection for the rim? I don't want to roll the fender. One rear tire has to be replaced so I'm looking for new rear tires. thx
