Will this fit without any issues?

Alpin snow tires (245/50R/18) - mounted on OEM BMW Rims/Wheels on my 2007 335i ?

Some guy is asking for $1500 , good price?

No, tires are way to tall at 245/50/18, should be 40 profile.

ahh thx... i'm such a newb .... what are my options for going to 18" or 19" in terms of tires size?

dkvby · 01-07-2009, 01:15 PM

even 40 is kind of tall for 245 width, oem is 225/40/18 255/35/18, so u can go 225/35/19 or 255/30/19. but 19's winter are not good and hard to find.

Wait a second ladies. It may fit if the bolt pattern, hub bore and offset is right. It's just that the speedometer will be off since the rolling circumference will be larger than stock. Just have to make sure the wheel will fit without rubbing on any suspension components, wheel well, etc.

NO...it won't fit!!!

dkvby · 01-07-2009, 03:22 PM

its like 2.55 inches taller than oem, u probably hv rub issue and ur speedo will read lower than ur actual speed by about 10%

Kit523 · 01-07-2009, 04:13 PM

even tho if it fits
1500 just for the tires is a RIPPPPP OFFF

Won't fit.

Besides, 18-19" winters are $$$

Best bet is to go 225/45/17 or 205/50/17 - just like tirerack recommends.

Also not all stock wheels are created equal - not all of them will clear the brakes on a 335i.

I've just gone through this situation the past few months trying to find wheels that will fit my 335xi.
