Tyre Choices

[jerra-roo]

Hi, I am looking for wider tyre sizes that can safely fit and without rubbing on my 2008 135i stock wheels (OEM front 215/40 and rear 245/35)? What sizes can I go to? Thanks in advance.

225/40 255/35

BTW folks MICH PSS is on Special $1350 (Tyres and Pick Up only)

To clarify Evans, is this a set of 18" Michelin PSS for $1350? Other sizes?

Anyway, thanks to Tyrepower North Melbourne for plugging one of my tyres.

Ok, to complicate matters more I am thinking of getting a set of VMR710 wheels with the PSS. Would a set of 19" wheels be ideal and what size tyres would compliment safely without rubbing?

Vans,
I'm running with stock suspension. I rang your shop on Tuesday and spoke to a guy there about the 19". He mentioned you'll be back on the weekend. Please PM me so I can finalise some details with you and place th order.
Thanks.

The 180ish tread wear semi pattern street tyre?
Friends use them heavily, meant to be a little better than the KU36's I liked. I'll prob try them next, or RE11's.

My front ku36's we at ~70% at 8000kms, the rears were near gone. 230rwkw, mechanical lsd and "fun" suspension will do that. Driver may have has something to do with it. ;-)
