Need help on Rim/Tire Sizing

zachary.jones24 · 10-07-2021, 07:16 PM

I just bought a 2011 335i xDrive (base model) and am looking to get new rims for it. I am looking at styles 400, 437, and 343. I was wondering if any of these would fit my car, and if so, what tire sizing would work for 18-inch rims.

Congrats on your new car. The 335 is a rocket and you will love it.

I cannot find info on any of the wheel styles you mentioned. Can you provide the specs? Diameter, width, and offset? Or pictures at the very least

Your optimal tire fitment will depend on the width of the wheel, not the diameter. 18" wheel diameter will always take 18" tire diameter (unless you are really deadset on ruining the drivability of your car)

I just found the style 343

From what I'm seeing, this is a 20x9 et34 front and 20x10 et34 rear

Is that the one you meant? If so, thats not going to work for a non-M e9x
