Welcome to the boards
Tire sizes depend on the wheel offsets
Price can be extracted from the Vendors section
And SEARCH function will give answers to all your questions
Good luck

For a 325i, we generally recommend 19x8.5 +35 front with a 235/35/19 and a 19x9.5 +33 rear with a 275/30/19. The two most popular tires would be the General UHP and Kumho SPT's.

Feel free to let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,

Ok so the rear tire size I need for my car is a 275 30 19 not a 265 30 19? Adding this package will not call for any mods to my fenders right?

Sorry, missed the thread. What year is your car? No problems if its not a LCI. if you've got LCI it requires minor fender rolling in the back.

Both sizes are a perfect flush fitment without any modifications of the car.

is there any reason not to go with 275's? Are there any disadvantages to 275's vs. 265's on 19" wheels for an '07 e90?

if you put the numbers in the wheel calculator, 235 and 275 works better together. they are the closest in diameter. 265 is slightly smaller than 235 in diameter.



if it was up to me for the wheels, i'd go for the m3 offset. +25 front 19x8.5 and +22 19x9.5.

Is this the same for a e92 335? will going m3 offset cause it to rub? how about if I drop it with TEIN springs?

Sorry for the noob question but why the m3 offset?
