Bridgestone RE-11 Tires?

So i have a e90 07 335xi and am going with 19X9 and 19X10 rims with tire specs 235 and 275. I got a good deal on the RE-11 tires but I do no they run a bit wide, would that be a problem for my xi and still keep the diameter difference under 1. Also I no 235 on 19X9 would be a bit of a stretch so would it help with the stretch?

You should be fine with et35 in the front and et38 in the rear. The prelci e90 has the most room in the back and those same wheels fit an e92 with a 265 pretty easily. Also with the higher ride height of the xi it should be an easy fit.

235 wouldn't look bad on a 9 inch wheel. Personally I would go with a 245 to fill up the front wheel better. 245/275 is a close enough match for the awd.

hey just got one more question you think if a go with a more agressive set up like 19X10 ET 25 in the back it would rub on my 335xi..probably going to lower the suspension but rolling fenders is no problem to me

You would have to roll your fenders at a minimum.

You could probably do 19x9 et19 with a 225/35/19 and 19x10 et25 with a 265/30/19. You'll need to roll the front and the rear. You most likely need some negative camber as well.

A 235/35/19 on a 19x9 is not really stretched, especially for the RE-11. That tire runs pretty wide.
