E92 XI Owners - Wheels
I guess I am one of the few who have a 335XI. I want to upgrade the wheels and tires. Any ideas from fellow XI owners?? Want to go 19" but hearing too much bad about it. Looking at CSL Reps and M3 Rep Wheels along with Potenza tires (non RFT)

as long as you get tires that are the same height like 235/35 f 265/35 r. you will be fine with 19's

Use the calculator at the top of this subforum. 235/35/19 and 275/30/19 is bang on. I don't know whether the coupes can take 275's in the rears though. 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 is fairly close, but I don't know how sensitive the xi driveline is to even this much change. |

I am putting 235/35/19 and 275/30/19 on some m3 reps for my e92 335xi. Should have them on in a few weeks...hopefully they fit ok!!! et35 offset all the way around.

I have an XI and was planning on going with 19s. When I was talking to JLevi, he told me that 19s would fit perfectly fine.

The 265's will, the 275's might rub if you have the car lowered, or depending on the type of tire and the load in the back.
Tire rack says the 235/35 265/30 combo in 19" works for the xi. Many people already have this set up and there have been no problems yet. |
