Rubbing Poll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

e92man · 10-06-2007, 08:54 AM

hey guys,
i have a 335i coupe with 19inch miro type 366 hamann reps. the specs on the wheels are 19x8.5 and 19x10 with a e5 offset all around. i have a set of 245/275 toyos on the car right now with no rubbing on the stock sports susp. i want to know if it will rub when i lower it. i am not really concerned about the back because the 275 is a little stretched and i can always roll my fenders but, the fronts are really flush with the wheel and i have heard that u cant roll the front fenders. are there any other options besides changing to 235 tire?
thanks
e92man
ps
i will post pics if needed..................

ehhhwik · 10-06-2007, 09:39 PM

im not sure about the back, but for your front, i am running 19x8.5et35 too, and i have kumhos 235s, and kumhos are known for having really wide tires compared with other brands with the same specs, and i m lowered with h&r sports, and i dont rub at all, not even close

no worries about the set up mate, ive went to the track, drove over pot holes (not purposely of course), commute 30 miles everyday, go clubbing with a car full of girls (not obese and overweight ones) and i've never rubbed in my car once

theres the answer you need to know

I dont rub in the front, im lowered on H&R and running the same wheels as you except I have the general exclaim UHP's. My front is 235 35 R19 8.5. If you go any larger on the front you might rub, cause Im sitting pretty damn close to it...

ya i have a 245 in the front but its a toyo tire so it should be pretty close to a khumo 235 cuz they are supposed to run small right?

I am running 245/35/19 Toyo T1R with BBS LM 19x8.5 ET +32 in front and it clears both H&R sport and even KW V2 with less then 1 finger gap.

Back may rub a little depending on how far you lower and the brand of tire. Front should be fine.
