Hi

Recently bought a set of wheels as above with 235/35/19 front and 265/35/19 rear. On bumps and dips I get rubbing on right side front and rear. Front isn't much unless it's a big dip but rear rubs often. Im planning on getting the rear arches rolled but am surprised the front's rub.

Will I be ok with 225/35/19 on front? I wanted to keep rears at 35 profile too for the extra cushioning, don't want cracked alloys. I'm on oem m-sport suspension BTW. Also puzzled why it's only right side/drivers side that rubs.
Another option is getting 255/35 tyres on rear but tbh I like the look of the 265. I've read others with this same setup and they don't rub, even lowered.

Any help appreciated.

That's really odd you're rubbing on the stock sport suspension. I would adjust the camber a little bit and check your alignment. Those tire sizes should be ok too.

Thanks for the reply. Yes I'll take it for an alignment check. It's the only thing it could be. The rubbing is ever so slight as well. It's odd though as car drives absolutely straight. Hence why alignmentioned never occurred to me.

You should be using a 265/30/19 tire, 265/35/19 is M3 factory size and would require a bit more work to fit properly. It's by no means impossible to fit them, it's just that the sport suspension is too soft so you would need a stiffer suspension setup and possibly rolled fenders.
