Anytime you increase tire width but keep the same profile, the tire gets taller. 275/40 will give you 8mm more rubber above the rim. So it affects your acceleration and your speedo.

I see old post ….It’s possible but may require problem solving such as a little more negative camber and or fender rolling . Speedos on bmw are little generous so extra diameter can fix that and then you have weight and gear ratios to consider if you are picky .
Most importantly different brands may vary significantly not only in actual dimensions but also in sidewall shape so one 275 may fit w out mods at 35-40 ish offset and the really aggressive 200 treadwear tire may rub and require deeper fender rolling . Who’s got picks of e90 sedan w 275/40r17 |
