Help Needed On Tire Size & Options

hl0m4n · 11-05-2008, 04:33 PM

i have an e92 335i with sport package and i have my rear fenders rolled. i am planning on getting the vmr v710 but can't decide on tires. the problem are size availability. i am most likely not going to drop the car or install suspension so it shouldn't be a problem atm.

Tire Options:
1. Bridgestone RE960AS Pole Position (235/35/19+275/30/19): they have the 235F i want but no 265 rears.
2. Michelin Sport A/S (245/35/19+275/30/19): they have no 235F and no 265R.
3. Goodyear F1 All Season: they have a 235F but no 265 or 275 rear just 255.

i know there are some that use the general exclaim uhp all season and they said light snow is fine and it is a high performance summer tire. if that is the case can i just get myself a performance tire too like falken 452 and use all season or some goodyear f1 or vredsteins?

for the bridgestone 275 rear is fine with rolled fenders or will i get minor rub on the pot holes, dips, etc? in the future if i do decide to lower the car than all i need is camber adjustements?

If the offset is 33 I would just stick with 265 on the rear. 265 is perfectly fine for 9.5" wide wheels.

265 are not an available tire size...

Be sure to check with the vendor as sometimes they might be able to get you 265. I don't know off the top of my head which tires are available in what size but if you're basing it on TireRack, it might just be out of stock for the moment.

Tire Rack doesn't have any 265/30/19 all seasons. However, I think the 275s Bridgestones may just work out. From what I remember, they run slightly narrow.
