Bump for this ?

Hey, do you think you could fit a 295/30R18 back there with a fender roll and slight pull? How close is it to the inner shock strut?

Just bought my 2011 135i a few months ago.

Suspension is stock. I don't know the tire size off the top of my head. I'll have to look today, the tires are super stretched...also, I'm almost positive this is the same rim. I've been doing some research. Maybe someone can clarify that I am correct or incorrect.

Going to be getting tires for my Apex arc 8's 18x8.5 et 45 soon.


Just curious if anyone has any rear shots of 255/35 vs 235/40 on the rear?
I know a square set up is probably better for a variety of reasons, but I love the look of a wider tire on the rear. If the difference (eye test) btw the 235/40 vs 255/35 is minimal, Ill just go with the square set up.

TIA!

Stickers on Arc8s

I like the look of arc8s being center cap less cuz racecar but also need people to own Apex wheels. I also like the branding on RPF1s and E88s sooo I thought I'd mess around with some logos stickers on arc8s...

Thoughts?
