Just a quick question, anyone running 255/35/19’s and 225/40/19’s ?

If so, any issues

Think mr wilks did once as I quizzed him on it when getting new 19s myself, I'm sure he said it ran OK but he felt the car was over tyred (visually)
if its got tits or tyres..its trouble :D

My orange E89 was running 275/35/19 and 255/35/19’s temporarily- that looked like a moon buggy :rofl:
