Fitment Questions

Hello! I have just bought new rims for my 2016 430d xDrive Gran Coupe, but I have some questions regarding the fitment.

Thr original rims of the car are 8Jx18 ET34 front and 8.5Jx18 ET37 rear. The tyres are 225/45 front and 255/40 rear. The 19 inch rims are 8Jx19 ET36 and 8.5Jx19 ET47 with tyres 225/40 and 255/35.

I do not really like the original wheels that the car came with so I am going to buy the M437 wheels because they are looking very sick. I cannot decide between the 18 and 19 inch because I am not sure which would have a better fitment so I would please like you to help me out. Both 18 and 19 inch are 8.5J ET 33 front and 9.5J ET37 rear. Would they fit the original tyres of the car and are there going to be any rubbing problems. If there would be problems could you please tell me what tyre specifications should I go for?

Thanks in advance!

Hey man!

Don't worry about your fit! Fitment is just like OEM!

You can fit something way more agressive on your car! Like I do! I have a 435 witch is the same car as you and I'm fitting 20x9 + 35 front and 20x10.5 + 42 rear on 245-35-20 and 275-30-20! Fitment is perfect!

I do not want them being as stretched as yours though. If I use the original tyres, would you think that the rims would be stretched? If yes, what other tyres should I use?
