What's up guys!

I'm planning on getting new tires for my 335i sometime soon and I want to move away from the run flat tires. I haven't been in a 335i (JB3) yet with anything but run flats.

I have the 19" style 230 wheels, what do you guys suggest? I'd like to start shopping around or know when I spot a deal here on the forums!

Thanks in advance!

Hankook V12 EVO ... they ride very well, I Replaced my RFT to these and they have been GREAT.

I go thru tires alot, and for the $$$ these cant be beat, im picking up a set of 19's very soon as well.

I have Nankang Ultra Sport NS II summer tires on my 19's.

Although I have AWD, I do know the tires are very popular among G35/37 drivers, who are RWD. tires IMO are very good. I think they retail around $150+ per tire. Just depends on everything else. My rears I think were around $170? Per tire. My rear is 19"x10"..

Good luck

Are the style 230 wheels staggered? :noob:

Oh and I would take what Qmax says into consideration. He had one of the fastest JB RWD's around. His car is BEAST.

TY both for the advice.. I'm looking at online stores now to find em... I just put my car into Tire Rack and it's not showing the style 230 wheels.. Am I smokin' crack?

[jbarrec]

I should just go outside and get the sizes off the tire lol

INCOMING NOOB QUESTION!

How do I know if I have Style 230 or Style 189? I thought mine were style 230 but I went outside to look at my tire sizes and this is what it says:

Front: 225/40 R18
Rear: 255/35 R18

Does this mean I have 18's? (style 189)

just look through tire rack through your tire size.

staggered set up, btw 225-255= how wide the tire goes /35-40=the size of your sidewall/ R18= 18" Rims.

Style ###= Different models of rims(BMW)

style 230 or style 189 are 2 different rims

you most likely have style-189.

Thanks for clearing that up! I had no idea how to read the tire info :noob:

I think your right.. Style 230 are 19's and style 189 are 18's....I think .

[LaLakers91tc]

From my personal experience, I recommend Vredestein Sessanta's
phenomenal tires for a great price
I've had PS2's, BFG KDW-2's and these, and they are as good as the PS2's for half the price,

Obviously if you wanna blow a ton of money, you cant go wrong with PS2's

KDW's look good, and are great handling, look amazing, but very rough riding, even worse than the runflats.

Common man, you should be sure based on pics!

189



Don't tell me you can't notice the difference.

[jbarrec]

ROFL... I could have sworn when I got my car someone showed a pic of the 189's and was calling them 230's...

I WITHOUT A DOUBT have style 189 LOL.
