An age old question but I’m not sure how to find out the answer without asking or simply buying the wheels and tyres and putting them on the car.
Looking at getting these 19” 437M reps https://cmwheels.com/product/19-stagger ... 46-z4-f30/ (staggered 8.5/9.5j) and looking up what tyre sizes to go for, there’s a few choices it seems. Anyone know what the right sizes should be for these on an E89 upsizing from 18” wheels?

Those will fit & sit a treat on any E89 , tyres can be a few different combinations , myself prefer the 255 35 19 rear as opposed to 265 30 19BeardyJon wrote: ↑Sun Mar 24, 2019 3:33 pm An age old question but I’m not sure how to find out the answer without asking or simply buying the wheels and tyres and putting them on the car.

front 235 35 19 will be ideal

Thanks for the advice! Out of curiosity, what sort of difference is there with 255/35/19 vs 265/30/19 on the rears?

Difference is the 255 35 offers more by the way of comfort & wheel protection , they reduce the arch gap so aesthetically better too & generally speaking are cheaper to buy as for the 265 30 i can't see any good reason to go that size which is why i never have
