Hi guys, looking at getting some csl reps (boring I know) and they seem common in 19s. I'm not worried about the harsh ride but am I likely to buckle or crack them on poor roads due to the small tyre wall required to make them fit. Also, what size tyres are best for the 19s staggered. The ones I'm interested in are https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/19-Bmw-CSL-Style-Matt-Gunmetal-Alloy-Wheels-Fit-Bmw-3-Series-E90-E91-E92-E93-/224395268671?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286

Cheers
 
I have Riva CSLs on 19s and the ride is only slightly harsher than 18s OEM. Both tyre sizes are non run flats.

When the OEMs had run flats, the ride was far worse than the 19s.

The roads I use aren't great and so far, no issues with cracks or buckling.

Just buy the reps from a reputable seller.
 
An offset of 27 on the rear may give you issues.
I ran 9.5s on the rear with an offset of 35 without issues and then tried an offset of 33 and they rubbed
The lower the offset the wider they go.
Just my experience
