So i just sold my g35 coupe and pick up my 07 335i .

I have a set of 20* 8.5 and 20*9.5 What tires do I need so they don't rub? and do i need to trim inner fender or roll them a bit?

The best thing to do, is to go to tirerack.com and attempt to find a wheel similar to your size for your car, then tirerack shows the recommended tires for the wheel... there is your answer.

Welcome and Congratulations!

The best place to ask this is likely to be the wheel and tire sub-forum which you can access from the main forum page.

There's some really helpful folk over there, including Gary from Tirerack (a sponsor).....

Best,
-Alistair

But try 285/25 in the rear. You'll sleep better at night.

if its an E90, it can handle bigger, biggest I'd try to fit on an E92 would be 265s in the rear.

Yup. There's no way you will be able to run 20mm on the rear let alone the front.
