Higher profile tyres on E90 335i ??

Sifu-Lux · 04-07-2010, 11:24 AM

I've done many searches, but found nothing conclusive, so I need your help fellow forum gurus.

I am currently running 194M OEM wheels with :
Bridgestone RFT
225/45/17 front
255/40/17 rear

Car has factory M/Sport package

I want to fit 220M rep wheels which I can get locally in
19x8 (ET35) front and 19x9 (ET34) rear.

Standard tyre setup would be 235/35/19 front and 265/30/19 rear, BUT, can I run higher profile setup (ala M3) without issues (ABS / DSC) or other work (fender rolls ) on these wheels?

I was thinking of 245/35/19 front and 265/35/19 rear. A bit more sidewall meat.

TIA

Go 235/35/19 in the front and 265/30/19 in the rear. 35 series in the front and rear may not ride/wear as good.??
