Good Evening Guys,

Currently drive a 11' 335is with the stock 19" 313 wheels.
However, I bought the car used with a repaired cracked wheel and a repaired bent wheel. The repaired bent wheel is now bent again it seems and the wheel is beyond saving.

I found a deal locally on some Style 359 wheels for $1,400 and I'm considering pulling the trigger. They're the 19x10 rear, 19x9 front.

My concerns are:

I just purchased Pilot Super Sports to fit the 313's will the tires fit if I try to transfer them to the 359s? The research I've done makes me believe it shouldn't be too hard, only a slight tire stretch. But I am a novice in that department.

The primary concern is about rubbing in the rear and at full lock in the front. It seems like the 359s may be .5 mm too large and may cause problems. Anyone have experience with this, note I'm on stock suspension for the time being and this is a daily. Thanks in advance!

I have the exact same car as you.

Just had my 19" 313's stolen.

Had 19" Avant Garde M359 wheels put on yesterday.

No way you'd want to use the same tire size as the stock 313's.

For these new wheels I bought new larger tires:

235/35 front
265/30 rear

And the tires STILL aren't wide enough. (See pic)

No rubbing for me with this tire size, but they really need to be wider.

I'm going to my wheel shop today and talking to them about putting 245 front, 275 rear, and seeing if that works.

The second thing I want to show you in the pictures below is how shitty the finish is on these wheels.

Little bumps, paint runs, and knicks everywhere.

I run my finger over parts of it and the paint in the wheel is actually rough and bumpy!

Also parts along the inside edge there is paint literally hanging off the edge. Like I could take my fingernail and snap it off.

Absolutely horrible quality wheel I would not recommend.

What ET and width (j) are yours 19" Avant Garde M359?

Those AG wheels are notorious for the mediocre finish. Its not bad but its not great. Definitely upsize those tires.
