Are the tires rubbing on the outside edges? Maybe an alignment with a tad more negative camber might solve the issues.
I'm running PSS 265's in the rear with no rubbing. |

Well, I guess I'm going to try an alignment first. Absolutely no one in my area rolls fenders.
I'm still absolutely ticked off that the same size Michelins rub. Nice improvement over the PS2 ![]() ![]() |

I'll try an alignment as well. Cheaper than selling these tires used and spending another $500 bucks on 245s.

I also know from my VW/Audi days that some cars can be built with weird tolerances. Sometime you would run across a car that the car body was off as much as 3/4 of an inch from left to right.

I guess yours is lowered. I am running 255/35/18 Yokohamas and as an earlier photo shows, they are square and w-i-d-e, but no rubbing. Dack stated the same thing with PS2s (as you had). Very odd.

Rear wheel wells 123d M Sport
@Dackelone: I am attaching a photo showing some of the inside lip of the left rear wheel well on my 123d. This has not been rolled ... so is this what the inside lip of those 135i's with issues look like? If not, then BMW must roll the inside lip of M Sport units??

Has anyone suggested it might be suspension related. Maybe to much compression under load or possibly the tires were improperly labeled. Lots of folks run PSS 265's in the rear including myself with zero rubbing issues. It seems odd that some of us have no issues and others have issues with the same setup. I even had my car lowered and they worked perfect after that too.
Anyhow hope it works out for you. Those tires are awesome. |
