19" rims?
Thinking about getting 19" rims in the spring
235/40/19 - front 255/35/19 - rear I have the B12 kit Any concerns about how the lowering kit would affect size & width |

should be fine iirc. I think you can go wider in the rear on the E90.
Which rims?

I know the B12 kit is about a 1/2" lower than the sport/ m-sport suspension(s). So, I was curious about 265 or even 275. I have a buddy with a stock 335is and he runs 265's, but there's no way he would able to run 275's on there with 19" rims. I might opt for 18" rims and have more room to play with.. |

In terms of clearance and actual functionality, nope, at least not for me (pre-LCI e92). For me it there was no contact whatsoever.
But my sidewall stuck out about .5cm outward of the rim lip. Perfect for slight curbing protection, but I wanted to keep it flush, that was why i downsized Here's a pic of the 275 when it was on

Not trying to hijack the thread but I have a small question regarding 19 inch wheels. I got 19x10 +38 VB3 to go on the rears for my Pre-LCI E90. Stock suspension. It should fit without spacers, right? Shop took a look at it and said with 275s it would rub. I got continental DWS06+, I don't think they stick out any further than the wheel.
Question being, is it gonna be super close to making contact on the inside of the wheel? I could see it was close to one of the suspension components, but not making contact. Mechanic (Pepboys) mainly works on trucks here so I wouldn't expect them to be professionals in this field. |

I have yet to after 6+ years of ownership and I drive into Boston etc. Granted I have decent quality(BBS) rims. If you buy inexpensive rims you may damage given the low profile. You can bend any rim regardless of quality if it is bad enough.

I currently have Style 189's on my '09 335 with PS4S' 235/40/18 and 265/35/18 on stock suspension with lowering Spring Perches on the front. I want to go with 19" wheels but Nashville roads are terrible and I like the ride of my higher profile tires. I'll be watching to see what you decide on and am leaning toward 235/40/19 and 265/35/19.

I think I have 15mm spacers on my fronts but none on my rear. After a pothole took out my custom rims, I went back to my old stock rims and still sits super aggressive dues to the kw v3 setup I have
