255/40 winter tire question
Looking at a used set of winters in 255/40 19. I only have staggered wheels currently the stock 788M. I was planning on running these square tires on the car for the winter.
My summer setup is 255/35 front and 275/35 rear with no rubbing. Two concerns I have are increase in profile and minor stretch of 255 tire on 10" diameter wheel. According to the tire calculator, it will be 1" great diameter. Car is not lower and at factory M2C height. Thoughts from anyone? |

I got a set of 640m wheels from M4 on M2C. 255 40 R18 on four wheels, ET27 front and ET29 rear.
The front wheels are rubbing a little bit with the plastic when full lock. |

My barely educated opinion is that 255/40/19 is too big for an M2 anyway - they are 3/4" larger diameter that the stock rear tires. Last edited by CTSean; 11-18-2019 at 09:37 AM.. |
