Unhappy BMW E93 M3 front winter tires.

I cannot find front winter tires 245/35/19 for my 2013 M3 E93. Is there any other alternate size I can go with for 19" X 8.5" wheels? I already have 265/35/19 blizzakas for rear.

235/35-19 is what I have gone with for my front 220M's.

Do you need the XL(extra load) rating for that size? Can you share the full specs for that tire? Thanks

With an 8.5 you can go with 225 if needed

You need the proper load rating, yes.

There are higher load rating tires in 235/35R19 since it is actually an OEM size for the Audi S3 and Mercedes CLA45.

SYT_Shadow I think 225 are too narrow. The rim protection would be pretty less as compare to 245 and 235 on Michigan roads.
