Is 245/35/19 to wide for an 8" wheel? Thanks

I have 235/35/19's on an 8' wheel so I'm going with maybe. It will probably fit but you may want to go 8.5".

i know it will fit but i dont want it to be overlapping the rim. I have that size tire on a 19x8.5 tire now. I ordered 335i coupe and want to put the 19" m3 wheels you have in your sig on the 245 tire. I know stock is 225 on that size for the m3 wheels on the fronts. How does the 235 look on the 8" wide wheel? To much overlapping?

The 235's looks good on the 8" wide 199's I have on front of the 330i but 245's may overlap a little. It should be ok.

Take a look at the rear wheels of a G35 with the sport package if you get a chance - they have 245 width tires on an 8" wide wheel. Looks fine imho, but then again I'm not a fan of the "stretched" look.

ok thanks

i was wondering about this too. Im going to get the style 230's for my E90, and was deciding what size tires. I looked at a 545 we had in the shop and noticed the tires are 245f-275r, The wheels are 8"f=9"r. They look perfect on that car, so hopefully it should look somewhat the same.

yes i noticed that 2 .the 5 series uses wider tires on there rims. even the 530 sport wheels that are 18x8 all around use 245/40 tires all round. They dont look as stretched
