235/45-17 ET20 ok on 2011 E91?

eehgil · 06-10-2016, 11:06 AM

Does anyone know if I can run 235/45-17 ET20 in the front on a 2011 LCI when the car is slightly lowered?

I'm pretty sure 225/45-17 ET20 is ok, but I wan't a little more meat.

To answer my own question: I have now been running 235/45-17 ET20 for a summer and it did not rub. Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymetric 3

First I used 15mm spacer in the rear (=ET5), rubbed insanely.
Then I used 10mm spacer in the rear (=ET10), rubbed e little (aceptable maybe?)
With no spacer in the rear (=ET20) it does not rub.
