I personally increased my tire size to 235/35/19 and 275/30/19 which is very slightly larger than stock and a closer match in diameter front to rear than the 225/255 would have been.
It is possible to go up a bit in size but I would increase the width and decrease the aspect ratio.
There are a ton of threads on how big wide you can go with specific offsets for the e90. The pre-LCI rears have a bit more room than the LCI cars IIRC.
This page has some good info for the e90: https://support.apexraceparts.com/hc...-Fitment-Guide

Hey Rich
Thanks for your input,
Basically I have the opportunity to buy these 442m alloys with the tyres, just wanted to know if I could put them straight on my E90 without having to buy new tyres also, would there be any major issues if I didn't reduce tyre ratio by 5
Many thanks
