BBS LM help!

syd · 02-23-2012, 04:48 AM

Hey guys,

I recently grabbed some BBS lm reps off of the forum and needed some insight with what tire size would be best to run. They are a square 19x9.5 +35 offset. Car is riding at stock height. Any insight is appreciated, im new to this. Thanks

You'll be able to run a 235/35/19 all around without any issues.

Would that be an ideal set up to run? If not, what would you personally recommend for me to go with? Thanks!

You could run up to 265/30/19 on the rear with 235/35/19 on the front.

Another idea would be to use 245/35/19 all around, but its probably best to pull the alignment pin on the front to get more negative camber and avoid any possible issue with the front fenders.

19x9.5 ET35 will be virtually touching the front strut. You might like to check for yourself, but it probably makes sense to put a 3mm spacer to keep it safe. Front camber changes have no effect on the strut clearance.
