YES ITS FINE!!!

make sure your overall tire diameters are the same for the front and the back, thats all that makes a difference

overall tire diameter = rolling diameter

I wonder if I can order the 19" ZCP in a staggered setup through the dealer for my xi. 235/265.

Get the ZCP wheels from Tischer, it's the best price possible and get tires from Tirerack.com

Nice. I'll wait to see how things go. Hope everything fits as they look great.

i'm getting VMR CSL wheels 19" in a staggered setup,don't think i'll have any clearance issues...

grkmec · 06-09-2008, 07:17 PM

Anyone with an e90 xi running 235/3519 and 275/30/19? Any problems with the rear width?

I ask because rolling diameter is closer with 275's vs. 265's

i run the tire size you are inquiring about.

Front et34 and rear et30, I'm dumped on KW V3's pretty low and there's not rubbing whatsoever.

go for it!

Kev · 06-09-2008, 07:52 PM

The difference on PS2s are minimal as far as I can tell. Not sure about other brands

OverDrive · 06-12-2008, 03:20 PM

would you be able to run 245's in front?

Kev · 06-12-2008, 05:35 PM

I'm going to try 245s on my NEEZ EuroCross 7Model. I'll let you know if that's ok or not.

thanx man

choopy · 06-16-2008, 01:01 AM

Gettin my rims tomorrow. 235 35 19 F and 275 30 19 R
Still on stock suspension, but ill let you know how the 275's are working out in the rear

UdubBadger · 06-16-2008, 11:34 PM

245's SHOULD work in front.

hell the goodyear place that put on my 19's put one of the rears (265) in front on accident and i didnt notice for a week. it stuck out a bit width wise, which is how i finally found out, but it only rubbed when i turned the wheel ALL the way pulling hard left or right.

anyway, 235/35/19 F and 265/30/19 R fit just fine and look sweet with a drop. just about to get my 2nd set of rims that size and they look sickly wide on the e90

But you have an E90, its a bit tighter in the front for the E92's. Though it's still pretty cool that the 265's only rubbed little.

UdubBadger · 06-16-2008, 11:47 PM

sorry i didn't know you specified an e92

jettie1767 · 06-17-2008, 01:44 PM

So, does this mean that I can go with 19s staggered from the BMW performance catalog and won't have any issues with fitment?
