Do the BMW OEM style 264 18" fit a 225/40 (front) and a 255/35 (rear) combination??

Yes, they are the same size/offset as the normal 261s . . . I'm running 235/40 18 in the front and 255/35 18 in the rear.

I'm assuming on stock suspension and wheel size for D-Stock? Which tires are these, Dunlop Star Specs? How do you like them? No rubbing with the 235 in front?

Hankook V12s. This is my street setup. No rubbing at all, in fact I think I should be able to squeeze in 245 Hoosier for autox.

I do have the pins removed in the front (it's legal . . . see here) and I've taken some of the negative camber out of the back.


Feels good so far, but I'm still breaking in the tires. Cushier ride. Grip in front is improved. Back is looser, may need to add some of the rear camber back in, but I can't tell for sure till I get it on course.
