Hello , how are you doing guys ?
I have a 328ix 2011 with full m3 body swap and style 359m 19" wheels .
And I encountered a dilemma where the traction triangle light keeps on blinking when I full throttle it with a huge loss of power and acceleration .
Rear : 265/35r19
Front : 245/35r19
Is there anything I can do to solve this ?

And I could really use some help if you just advice me with a coilovers that are soft almost like stock.

Thanks in advance
And I'm sorry for my bad English .

Based on your tire profiles, your rear is taller than the front. Not sure if the size differences are tripping the IX system in your car

probably, 2% difference.

235-40-19 in the front would fit.

does not mean this is the issue, but high chance.

Playing around with tyre size can get expensive if you experience other issues and are left trying to sell lightly worn tyres! 235/40/19 is a tall tyre. I rubbed with 225/40/19 on my car, which is lowered and running 12mm spacers. The tyres also looked a bit silly.

235/35 and 265/30 is a decent match.

agree, on 19'' this could be an issue.

still the 235-35 and 265/30 is 0.8% difference. is quite low, but might be enough to cause issues.

I wanted 265-35 in the back so I had to go with 18'', so 235-40 fit. 0.4% difference, I have no issues

I agree that 235/40/18 & 265/25/18 are a good match.

For what it might be worth I run 255 35 19 fronts with 265 30 19 rears and never see the traction triangle light. I also disengage the traction control system whenever I drive the car. There's numerous remedial video's available online by typing in your symptoms.

There's no problem at all with 18.. I tried it before

235/35/19 amd 265/30/19 on mine as well. No issue.


Dunno if that was a typo that you run 265/35, or you meant 265/30. But 265/35 is not identical or near identical OD to a 245/35 which Xi requires
