Been looking for factory M Competition wheels for my 335i, but the 10" rear I heard will not fit, I was told, I would need to stretch my tires and roll my fenders? Not ever heard of stretching the tires, could someone explain? Im sure someone has fit this install many times over. I know Avant Garde makes a replica, but I prefer the factory wheels.

Is your car E90 or E92?

Stretched tyres means that you would use tyres that are narrow to the wheel. Like this http://www.e90post.com/forums/attach...1&d=1344598849. This is just and example and there are many stages of stretch depending how wide the wheel is and how narrow the tyre is. Everyone seem to have their own opinion of what is stretched and what isn't.

In your case i think the wheel is 19x10 et25. This will work with 265/30/19 which by the way isn't stretched. But you most likely need fender roll to rear, because it might rub. Depends how low you are etc. This what fender roll means http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_I_9QQdTrHE basically flattens the inner fender lip so you get more clearance.

Here is e90 with 19x10 et24 and 265/30/19 http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=883948

Here is e92 with 19x10 et25 and 265/30/19 http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=531437

Who ever said that 10 wide to rear doesn't fit clearly doesn't know what he is saying. All those stretched tyres and fender rolling is done, so people can fit wider wheels with aggressive offset and still be able to drive without rubbing atleast most of them. Check this thread out plenty of stretched tyres and wide wheels http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=836355

No problem and i just realized that the E92 on that last link has the exact wheels you want to get. I recommend getting 235/35/19 tyre to front and 265/35/19 to rear. You most likely need to get your fenders rolled tho.

Yes the 19x10 rear for E92 deff needs fender roll or fender trim. I for one always prefer the fender trimming since it's a cleaner look. The fender roll can sometimes damage the paint or warp the rear quarter panels.
