About Tire Size
Hi Guys,
I have been doing a lot research and finally decided to replace my tires with Michelin PPS. I have 326M 19" rims on my 2011 Z4 35is. what's the best setup for my car? Should I keep it OEM sizing? Front 225/35/19 Rear 255/30/19 or Front 235/35/19 Rear 265/30/19 I would appreciate any other options or suggestion Thanks |

Nick, are those your sizes in 18"? What do you like about those sizes over stock?

Thanks for the suggestion. Maybe next replacement I will get 18" rims but for for I just love the look of the 326 19".
What's the advantage with the Front 235/35/19 and Rear 265/30/19 compare to OEM sizing? That's $20 each tires for price difference if I wanna get wider than OEM size. worth it? Last edited by chiu7526; 07-23-2014 at 03:00 PM.. |

As I mentioned earlier, I wanted 18s due to the minor weight reduction from 19 to 18 (~5lb from wheels, ?? from tires), and the lower cost I was also trying to solve for the wheel hop exiting bumpy corners that the stock 19 RFT had (but 19 non RFT probably would have solved it too) |

The dunlop ZII are actually more than 10mm wider than stock, despite the label on the sidewall. I'd recommend a test fit if the car they are going on is lowered |
