18 x 8.5 +38 All-Around Good to go?

Hey guys,

Would this square setup be okay for the front of my 335xi? Also could I use the same size tire all around (255/35)?

Thanks,

Jay

Yes, you could run that or put a 5mm spacer to move the tires out a bit.

I'm running the same tire size on the front of my 330i with et38 + 5mm spacer. I'm lowered quite a bit and have NO issues with rubbing.

That set-up is fine, although I wouldn't go with such a big tire. I would go 245/40/18 at most.
