Wheels and tires for my 2007 BNW 328xi

srazzaqi · 06-22-2011, 10:43 PM

Hey, I was wondering if I get 19 inch wheels for my car, what offset should I get because I want to get the rims staggered and they say that I need the same diameter in order to fit an all wheel drive car, also, I was wondering what size of the tire should I get, like 235 in the front and like 255 in the back?, please help, thanks!, and can you guys post pics too?, I appreciate the help.

son't mean to hack your thread but also need help,same thing with me a newbie, If i will get a 19" with 235/265 will I sacrifice the ride quality?

the reason I'm asking is that my wife is preggy and don't want her to be annoyed by the bumps in the road here in Atl.

I'am thinking of getting the Avant Garde M310 18" but if 19" will not sacrifice the ride quality I'll go for it.

Thanks guys.

Yes, going to a lower profile tire generally will make the ride firmer. Can't predict how sensitive your wife will be to this, but you can go to a softer riding non run flat all season tire if it becomes an issue.

I have the same car and put on 19 M6 reps - a little harsher ride but definitely worth it in the looks dept from those chunky 17s. I have staggered set up 235/f 265/r with continental DWS - I don't mind the ride
