Question 245 and 275 tires on Breyton Race GTS 19inch rims

For those of you who have the Breyton Race GTS 19" wheels, do you think 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 tires would work without issues? This would be on a 335 coupe with sports suspension. I do not plan to do any suspension mods. Would here be any rubbing? Tirerack's website lists 30mm front offset and 35mm rear and they recommend 235/35/19 and 265/30/19. Thanks for your help guys!

Garage List
On a coupe, the 245/275 combo might cause you some rubbing issues. Given, with a 35 offset you might be alright without any lowering. So you know getting into it, theres a slight chance a coupe will rub with that setup.

A sedan on the other hand, has a bit more room in the wells, so if you are driving a sedan that combo is no problem

I have the same setup on my E90 335i. No problems. I have ZSP. However, if you lower the car there might be problems.

Dah - I was just reading your post and I believe you have 275/35 rear on 18" rims. A 275/30 on a 19" rim should be about 1/2" smaller in diameter (based on the math).

The 18" and 19" Generals have about the same diameter, but the 18" is .3" wider tread width - hard to believe.

If you have a sedan you should be fine, but if you have E92, you might rub.
