Anyone with 19's using bigger tires then 265 & 235?
I'm amazed by how many BMW M3 drive around all year round on their 19s and drive over bumps as if it was nothing?
I have to watch everything I drive by. So I was thinking, anyone with 19's using bigger size tires then the recommended 235/35, 265/30s?
Does it rub? Does it smooth?

you gotta also know that, the offset of the wheels affect if it rubs or not as well. Also not just the size of the tire, but the brand of the tires can also affect rubbing. Some tires are more square than others. You should think about these 2 important things when you decide to get bigger tires or just in general, getting rims.

Surprisingly enough, my car does not rub unless I have four people in the car. But I think when my tires run out of ware; I’m going to go back to 235 and 265 just to be safe. I LOVE my Bridgestone tires though. “CLK2K3”, I just E-mailed you my PICS. Feel free to post them and let me know what you guys think.
Thanks
