First, I guess you mean 235/35/19 and 265/30/19, and we need to know the offset to give you any advice about the fitment.

thats the normal set up for 19's on here, ur in the clear.

id run some spacers in the rear to make 22ET

mre904u · 01-12-2010, 06:27 PM

see i was thinking spaces as well but come winter time to switch tires to winters taking off the spaces will completely through out the alignment.

ps, after you guys lowered your cars can any alignment shop able to set the alignment back close to spec..

I heard the E90 pre fl and the new LCI has different chasis. So the offset of rims is different. Anyone can help?

Since its an LCI, I think it there is the possibility of contact on the rear fender. Some people claim that ET33 will work with 265s on the LCI, but it could easily rub depending various factors. I would guess it needs another 5mm inset, such as ET38 on the rear if you want a completely safe trouble free fitment.

Not a different chassis but a wider track.

Oddly enough my rear was in spec after the drop, but my front... it was jacked. But now the car grips all day.

khoda355 · 01-13-2010, 11:45 AM
