I Have A Set Of E92 M3 Rims (oem 220 19") That I Put Onto My 335i Xdrive Coupe.

Can Anyone Tell Me For Certain If I Put 265/30/19 And 235/35/19 Tires If Ill Have Problems With Xdrive. (rolling Diameter Is Less Than 1% Difference)

You Guys Will Think Im Crazy But Ive Had Problems With Front Axle And Front Diff After I Put These Rims On. I Fixed Both Problems But Want To Know If These Issues Are Just A Coincidence Or Its The Rims That Are Screwing With The Car. Mechanics Cant Give Me A Difinitive Answer. They're Only Reasoning Could Be Offset But If Theres No Rub Or Anything I Dont Get How That Could Effect The Car.

Please Advise!!!

I got the rims off of a friend, i paid close to nothing for them, and I like them much more than my staggered 18" 193's. I know the rolling diameter is ok, Im wondering iff offset would effect mechanics in any way

Did you make sure the rolling diameters and the revolutions per mile are less than 1% according to the tire manufacturers specs from their website or tire-rack (not the metric specs written on the tire). The other thing to consider is weight and resistance. So it may be a combination of changes.. Heavier weight, greater rolling resistance (thicker tires), slightly different rolling diameters, all together putting more stress on an older axle, diff and suspensions.

I know the diameter is 0.8% the revolutions per mile are 799 for rear and 792 for front.

The 19" wheels are actually lighter than the 18" 193 rims.

I changed the front left axle and front diff. You think i should be ok from here on?

No it shouldn't cause any problem. Lots of people here run et 29F 23R, including myself..
