Maximum possible tyre size ?

whopwop · 25-10-2008, 07:54 PM

Has anyone used tyres larger than the standard 235/265.
I am just wondering what is the largest size front and rear on the standard 19'' rims without fouling the archs etc. ??
I am running KW Club sport 3 way, so camber is not an issue.

Thanks in advance.
Mark.

Dave - why did you revert back to stock sizes???

whopwop · 25-10-2008, 08:09 PM

yea , why revert so stock ?, problems ?

no, I had these tires in stock comming from my previous M3 E36 mounted in 19 inch, So passed theses tires to get them out of the way and gain some time and money before to buy a new and matching set for my Csl

no problems about size, and no difference to me between 235/45 and 265/75

Anyone else had experience of running 245 front and 275 rear tyres on OEM CSL 19" rims?

I'm planning to remove the E92 M Performance rims currently fitted to my car (which have the larger tyre sizes) and revert to standard OEM wheels using these wider tyres.

Hello...

4 years later, is anyone running this dimension on OEM CSL wheels.
If yes, any photos to see how they sit on the wheels ?

Hi Al,

All the pics in my album on here, on the OEM wheels, were running 235/265 as I always had those sizes on the standard rims

The pic on my sig for example below
