anyone running 255/35/19 ??

I am getting sick of feeling every little road imperfection. Will these fit a E92 with stcock 230 19x9 ?

They should fit, but your looking at a tire that is nearly 3cm taller than stock, so your speedo will be out (~4% lower)

Bit tall, but it'll work.

Firstly are you on RFTs or non RFTS

sorry, one last thought, are you changing your fronts as well? Otherwise you might have DTC pains!

SPJ · 07-10-2012, 05:30 AM

Fronts are 225/35/19 rears to be 255/35/19 do you think it will affect the dtc ?

Rivenscyr · 07-10-2012, 05:36 AM

Nah it'll be fine, I run similar tire sizes

pavo335 · 07-10-2012, 06:20 AM

It's only 5% but why bother?

SPJ · 07-10-2012, 06:43 PM

every little bit helps

pavo335 · 07-10-2012, 07:00 PM

i assume you are still on RFT's? If so just swap for NON RFT's you will say 'Thankyou' every day. Ride a lot softer say 50% (you might find a little to stiffen the suspension). But grip is the biggest difference 100% better.

I am about to change wheels and tyres and decided to go by Stu's recommendation ie: Front: 235/35/19 and Rear: 265/30/19. That means my 18" style 193m's will be up for sale at the end of October.

You'll get a 275 in the rear no probs and while I've not confirmed it, it looks like a 245 will fit on the front imho
