well i had the setup and i have an xi just so your aware the fronts will rub when you turn and will wear out the plastic in your wheel well and the rears will rub pretty harsh bad over bumps if your willing to roll your fenders and have a shitty ride quality steering wheel shakes constantly then do it lol

Alot of us are running 235/35 and 265/30 on 19x8.5 / 19x9.5
that would be more of a safee tire set up on 19's. I cant say if you will rub with those tires you stated above, but i would guess yes. you need to check the offsets of those wheels though. |

ive had those on my previous 08 335xi before it got totaled and i only had it for 2 days so i didnt expereince much... i liked the 235/35 with 265/30 set up but just thought id be a little more flushed given that i have a stock suspension and wont rub at all.... my g35 coupe had 245/40 front and 275/35 rear with and 25mm spacers front with 12mm spacers in the rear with no rubbing dropped with tein s techs on sport shocks

Id recommend the set up i mentioned above.
Alot of vendors sell those tires with the wheels as a package, so depending on the offset of the wheels You will not have to worry about any rub with people in your car/turning/going over bumps etc... just my .02 cents. good luck. Quote:

I run 235/275 with 19x8.5et20 & 19x9.5et25 on a pre-lci 335xi. I am lowered about 1.5" and pretty flush. With a good alignment there is slight rub in rear because I have not rolled the fenders yet.

depends on wheel offsets and width obviously but the setup you posted is pretty basic..so safe bet is 235/35 and 265/30. If you want to run stretch or need to I should say 225/35 and 255/30 is an option for xi

235/35F and 275/30R are ideal tires sizes for 19".'
However, as mentioned above that may need to change depending on wheel offsets and driving characteristics (more understeer with wider rear tires).

Agreed, for xDrive/xi 235 front and 275 rear tires are better because the xi is all wheel drive you want to keep the rolling circumferences the same to prevent strain on your transfer case.
So 235/275 combo is best: .35 x 235=82.25mm and .3 x 275=82.5, a .25mm difference. |

I went with B&G springs for my 328xi coupe and Koni Yellows. I've had them on for about 15k miles already and works great. I went for B&G after a few people on this forum had good experiences with them.
