Will this setup work + Tires with no tread warranty question.

Hi, looking to confirm this setup will work.

I have 19x10+30 and looking to confirm if 255/35's will fit my 08 335i.

I've 255/30 atm and they fit with zero issues. The 255/35 will be 1" bigger diameter or 25.5mm.

Another question. Looks like the firestone Firehawk Indy 500 is a decent tire, but there is no tread warranty and people seem to be going through them at 12k miles or so.

Sure they have a nice initial price, but when continental and Micheline have 30k tread warranty are the firestone's really "worth" it?

I always wondered tread warranty... does it still apply if you do burnout or you car gets a lot of wheel spin?

That i do not know, but i would assume "they" can tell.

the tread warranty would be like the compound on one tire is defective and didn't survive to the rated tread.

if both your rears are worn significantly faster then the front, no warranty as that' abuse.

I'm surprised no one has responded.

After googling what M3's are coming with from Factory I see the Style 359M came in 19x10+25 in the rear with a tire size of 265/35/16 and also 285/30/19

if the calculator at https://tiresize.com/wheel-offset-calculator/ is accurate, seems I'll be just fine.
