F30 335i wheel size help
I'm not too knowledgeable on wheel offsets and such, but I have a buddy willing to sell me his BBS in these sizes:
19x8.5 ET32 19x9.5 ET32 I'm lowered on Dinan Springs, and I'm planning on using the OE 19 wheel sizes 225/40/R19 255/35/R19 Any ideas if this setup would rub or cause problems? Thanks. |

The front is fine, the rear however is aggressive for F30!
Have a look at MadZarBMR's setup: f30.bimmerpost.com F: 8.5x19" ET32, 225/40-19 R: 9.5x19" ET35, 255/35-19 Your rear wheels will extend an additional 3mm. |

You might be okay but it's gonna be close in the rear. I have a 10" +38 on the rear of my F36, with a 275/35/20 and it's pretty snug. However F32/F36 has a little more clearance in the rear than an F30
If it's your buddy, why not just throw the wheels on the car to make sure they fit? |

And I'm currently 4 hours away from him unfortunately, I was going to go pick it up during my summer vacation from work, and I don't want to pop by and then decide not to buy them when he could sell it at a much higher price to others, he's currently putting it on hold for me, so I was seeing if it would fit, if not I'll just let him know. |

I'll probably let him know to sell to someone else, I'll probably get something else, I'll stick to ET38-ET42 in the rear so I don't have to worry about anything rubbing or something haha. |

19x9.5 et+30 265/30/19 I will say that i'm lowered by 2.5 inches (have around ~1 finger gap), which will cause more natural camber, so maybe thats the difference? |

My car is an F36, so I don't have any actual first hand experience with an F30....Only that i know the F36's have a few more mm clearance in the rear |

I just recently bought some new aftermarket rims.
Front : 19/8.5 Rear : 19/9.5 I was thinking of running Front: 245/40 Rear:275/35 I'm on stock suspension I don't want and fender rubbing. Does anyone have experience with these sizes. Or should I just go with the recommended Front:225/40 Rear:255/35 Or if aanyone has their own suggestions I'm all ears |
