B58BULLY · 05-29-2016, 01:17 AM

Hey guys need some help....im putting on my 20" 356 style oems
I want a track stance sort of meaty tire look
Fronts are 20x8.5 et33 rears are 20x9 et44
I will be on hr springs and plan on running a 10mm spacer up front and 12mm rear
Can i get away with
255/35/20 fronts and 285/30/20 rears
I have xdrive 535 non msport with m5 rear and msport front which is why i want the meaty tire bc rear end looks aggressive and small tires are killing me

According to the tire standard 255 is max on the front 8.5" wheels and 275 is max on the rear 9" wheels.

Since you have xDrive and the rear max is a 275 tire your best option is OEM 245/35-20 front and 275/30-20 rear.

I would probably have done a square setup with four front wheels and 255 tires for a meaty tire firment on the wheels.

I have the same rims. 255 is perfect for the front and is perfectly flush. I have 285's in the rear and could use a 10mm spacer to make it flush. I think a 295 would fit, but not sure that would make it flush.

Ty man hows the mission performance tune working out i cant wait till they come to ny! Are u dropped? Bc in another thread i saw someone complaining of rubbin on rears with 295s

My MP stage 2 is working flawlessly and isn't even the final tune. Mission should be in NY soon. Alex is coming back from Saudi Arabia and plans on stopping in ny on his way home.

I am dropped but on a mild spring 1" in the rear and .08 in the front. No rubbing and it seems there's enough room for a 295. I'll post a pic soon.

The f10 has plenty of room for a 295 tire, but 9" rears are to narrow for a 295 tires. The M5 that comes with 295 tires has 10" wide rears.

I have a ? for wifes 2016 535i xdrive can I do 19x10 rears with 285x35x19 tires and for front do 19X9 and do a 245x40x19 tires thinking this for a little more sidewall for cushion.

.BMW. · 06-05-2016, 09:34 AM

245/40 and 285/35 has matched diameters so perfect for xDrive.

ok, might be trouble trying to get the wheels I want in 19" can i do same tire size in a 20" wheel so it would be front 20x9 with 245/40/20 and rear 20x10 with 285/35/20 and this is for wifes 535i drive
and the offset for both is +35

.BMW. · 06-06-2016, 07:51 AM

Yes you can, but then the tires will be 1" taller than OEM for F10. The rear might rub with taller tires and ET35.

Correct 20" sizes will be 245/35-20 front and 285/30-20 rear.
