Need correct tire size for my new rims

Sejzilla · 11-28-2010, 06:59 PM

Im planning on getting the style 260m rims in 18x8.5 +29et in front and 18x9.5 +23et in the rear, i have a e92 335i with sports suspension, and i was gunna get some all season tires on there for it.....my question is i know that the offset is super aggressive so ill need to get correct size tires to make it not rub....what do you recommend? (i am probably going to roll my rear fenders to ensure no rubbing)

I think the OEM size would be fine. 225F/255R

You can always try 235F/265R

225/255 would probably be your best bet. I wouldn't recommend going anything narrower because you'll be getting some stretch on the tires. I would put the wheels on first then fender roll after if there are any rubbing issues.

Just misread the post.

225/40/18 front and a 255/35/18 rear will work perfect.

For 18" wheels 235/40/18 and 255/35/18 will be fine.

For 18" tires, with those wheels specs, I'd recommend 225/40-18 front with a 255/35-18 rear. You could go with a 235/40-18 front and 265/35-18 rear, but you may get some rubbing with this setup.
