Need help! Should I buy 219s on e92

I'm sure this is on forum somewhere but I can't seem to find it. Will my e92 be able to run m219 wheels or would it rub. Front tires 245 40 18. And rear are 265 40 18.

Thanks for any help!

265/40/18 on a E92 is way too big, I had to change mine to 255/35/18 with no rub.

this seams to be the consensus around here after I searched and posted ....I searched a lot and it seams like maintaining a 25" diameter is critical vs the 26" stock M3 diameter......boy, I hope I am wrong as I really like 219s 220s, and both series of ZCPs

wat? u need 225/40/18 for the front and 255/35/18 for the rear. This will give you less than 2% overall diameter difference which will have no affect to your awd.
