Yes i have thanks for the reply, f32 might be alittle more doable than xi sedan tho.. Im not a pro at this maybe other people might know better

Yes, they will fit with a drop.
The fit is identical to what I had on my HRE's.

What size tire setup did you have?

My wheels were 20" wheels so not really comparable tire wise (though the wheel fitment is identical).
But as the specs says in the thread I had Pirelli P Zero Nero (thinnest tire out there?!) 245/30 fronts and 285/25 rears

So wait, stock m4 tires should fit too than right? But what was the offset on your wheels?

9" ET30 and 10.5 ET47 so just 1 mm difference.

The rear tires might be hard to fit on the F30 since they have a high sidewall and you need to be pretty low for it to look nice. It is an aggressive fitment but more aggressive fitments have been fitted...

Here is a car with 9" ET29 and 10.5" ET43 which is even more aggressive in the rear, http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=986080

Don't use stock M3/M4 tires on a car with xDrive, the rear 275/35 tire is 2% taller than the 255/35 front tire. It may cause damage to the AWD-system, you have to match the overall diameter front and rear.

So does anyone know what tire setup I could run to make this work? can I atleast use the front two tires and replace the rear 2, rears wont fit anyways they would be too wide I think. So what to get for the back two tires?

255 tires up front is questionable, may be too wide and cause rubbing.

I would suggest either 235/265 combination or 245/275:
F: 9x19", 235/40-19 1% taller than OEM
R: 10x19", 265/35-19 1% taller than OEM
or
F: 9x19", 245/35-19 1% shorter than OEM
R: 10x19", 275/30-19 1% shorter than OEM

Both combinations above are within spec for the wheels and also the overall diameter is very close to work with xDrive.

I want to go with the first setup taller the tire better comfort but its 200$ more than the second setup on tire rack

Allright looks like Im going with the second setup 245/275 not to irritate you but are you sure that setup wont rub? I will be lowered on H&R springs for now.. and it is XI model.. I will put the order in as soon as you confirm that brother.

Hard to give you a guarantee for a rub free fitment since it is an aggressive setup and every car is unique when it comes to camber settings.

But based on other members fitments I would say that there is a very good possibility that they fit with 245/35-19 and 275/30-19, especially since the tires are slightly shorter than OEM.

If anyone else can chime in it will be helpful guys.. just sold the rims ) so ordering monday! if anyone can help and chime in once again please do

Stock of 335? Or stocks of the wheels? Most likely im changing my mind towards the 265 setup

Stock of the 335... This is an aggressive setup so I would not go with that. The other setup is pretty close to rubbing too.

So you are saying m4 rims wont fit to 335?

I am saying that it is an aggressive fitment so I wouldn't oversize the tires. And even lowered the rims will be a bit outside the fender.

Sizes are different and other ones look meaner Im still scared to pull the trigger tho because of the fitment on offsets

I see most people are using the 235/35/19 and 265/30/19.
You suggest 40/35 instead of 35/30, does thta have anything to do with Xdrive and Non-Xdrive?
