Pic request: 230 style with meaty tires

Im getting close to needing new tires. I have a '11 e92 with style 230 rims. I am wanting to get a very square look with a pretty meaty sidewall. Any of you have pictures of maybe 235f/265r? or bigger? I don't really know whats possible without rubbing. Im on stock suspension but will be lowering as soon as i have the money. Thanks for the help guys.

that seems to be a 8 inch rim with 245/35 on it. which would be awesome for the front. Would a 275/ 30 fit rear?

Yes, I even think that a 255/30 could go up front too. But 245/35 should fit nicely!

I'm running stock springs. It's the sports package suspension.

You should be fine if you want to go low with 265/30/19, 235/35/19..I'm running this set-up and I'm pretty low with no rubbing. (sorry for crappy iphone pic)

Nice. Do you think you could post up some pics closer to the fenders? Also do you think you could go with 275r 245f if you were a little higher?
