Anyone running larger tires on stock/staggered 351M Wheels?

SummerallGuard04 · 11-03-2022, 09:01 PM

Looking to soon replace my OEM Michelin run-flats with an all-season tire. Question: looking to run a meatier tire either in rear or up front and in rear. I've got the stock M SPORT 351 staggered wheel set up w/ 245/40/R19 on 8.5" wheel up front and 275/35/R19 ion 9" wheel in the rear. I'm not lowered and not sure that I want to run spacers...

Thoughts on 255/40 tires up front and maybe 285/35 tires in rear? Anyone have pics of a setup similar to this or thoughts?

The rears are 9” wide which limits you to 275/35r19 tyres

I've seen 245/45/19 and 275/40/19 without an issue

here's an example

I'd love to see someone post pics of a 245/45/19 and 275/40/19 staggered set up...

quick search and haven't seen a staggered setup, however people claim they've installed them and many people have the square 245/45/19 setup with posted pics.. which is the same diameter as the 275/40/19

I wanted to do the same thing. I just bought a set of staggered 351m wheels for my F10 and had just purchased some Michelin pilot sport AS 3 plus tires all around in 255 40 19 and was trying to avoid having to buy all 4 new tires due to the staggered 351m wheels.

I installed 255 40 19 up front and 285 35 19 out back. Perfect fit!
