Looks really good man! Any rubbing on bumps? Are you going to put them on the front as well?

gregsatt · 02-03-2015, 02:06 PM

No rubbing at all even when fully loaded with people and corning hard. Here's a picture from further away to give a little perspective.

Wow. That's a great shot... thanks!

Looks good! What are you lowered on?

Thanks,
Joe

Are your rear fenders rolled? I have 12.5mm spacers all around on mine and I get a rub on the rear tires at deep suspension travel.
I have the 19" 313 wheels

Amazing what wheel spacers can do for stance. Looking good!

My car isn't lowered with anything aftermarket. It's a 335is with the M Sports Suspension option S704A.

I have not rolled the fenders as there is no rubbing. When I bought the car, the dealer replaced the rear tires with 255/30/19 P Zero run flats. So... maybe the shape of the tire is allowing the fitment with no rubbing issues. Once I wear these tires out and put something a little wider and non RFT, I may have issues.

Hopefully you won't have the rubbing issues when you change tires. I have the Bridgestone RFT of the same size.

Your car does look awesome!

gregsatt · 02-05-2015, 08:07 AM

You have 255/30 or 265/30 RFTs?

No issues with 12.5mm in the front?

Thanks for the compliments! I'm lovin' the car so far. Only had it since November.

225/35 in the front and 255/30 in the rear.

No rubbing issues at all in the front.

Glad you are loving the car! The "is" is a rare bird meant to be savored!
