Will this tire rub??? Ordering tomorrow please help!

I have an 06 330i sedan with stock sport suspension and style 95s. I had a flat yesterday and need to replace the rears.

I have Nexen N7000 all around. So, I wanted 255/35/19 but they are not made in that size. Will a 265/35/19 fit without any modifications and no rubbing?

You should use 255/30/19 or 265/30/19 tyres. 255/35 is wrong height ratio for 19 inch.

Use the tire size converter up at the top of the page to test different sizes.

Ok I will move to the 30. Sucks they dont make it in a 255 or 265/30.

Would you guys choose the 265 or 255? I am not planning on lowering at all. The current tires are stretched a bit at 245/35.

Thank You!
