M3 Replicas with 35et fits a 275?

I have a E90 with the H&R Touring cup kit. I'm buying a set of M3 replicas with 35mm offset all around. 235's for the front will not be a problem but how about 275's on the back? will it rub? Shouldn't right?

Thanks

Should not rub on e90's. May rub on e92/e93.

I have seen people run 245/275 with no problems. the 245 up front will rub slightly while backing up and turning at full lock.

STILL dont understand why so many people on this forum are adding stagger to an already understeering car. Reduce it! Not make it worse!

I have the M3 reps in stock in 18 inch and 19 inch and I sell them all the time with 275 in the rear with NO problems whatso ever. If anyone needs help ordering the new M3 reps just let me know.

I have an e93 with M3 reps 19'', Running 245s in the front and 275 in the rear.

It does not rub at all. Even turning lock to lock, everything is fine. Runs great. Only concern is if you have rear passangers, it starts to become worrisome. When you start going over humps, it will rub with rear passangers, depending on how fast you're going.

But also keep in mind that e93 have very LOW rear spacing....

Yep, those 275 will work just fine on your E90. Post pictures once you get them on!

275's are not recommended on the e90/e92 - you will as those have said likely see some slight rubbing. Rolling the fenders would be an easy way to fit 275's. The recommended and safe choice is the 265's especially since you will be lowered with the cup kit as well.

Let us know if you need the M3 Reps - we do have them in-stock.

275 should be just fine on that wheel for the E90, we have run this setup before on several sedans without a problem.
