Hey guys , sorry if its replied many times but a bit confused and i need to find a clear reply/solution.

My car is running 441m wheels on 18' and looking to find what is the correct dimensioning if decide to move in 19' setup.

Replicas 437m style with 8.5x19 ET36 & 9.5X19 ET40 with 225/40/19 & 255/35/19 will run smoothly or any issues on aesthetic and driving matters ?

Any setup advice ?
RFT or non RFT on replicas ?

Your kind replies much appreciated !

that will work however the tires will be slightly stretched. 235/40/19 & 265/35/19 is a few tenths taller and will fit the rim better and fill out your wheel wells if you aren't lowered. 245/35/19 & 275/30/19 is the max size that will work with your setup.

definitely Non RFT such as michelin pilot supersport, bridgestone s-04, continental dw, hankook ventus v12 evo2.

Great advice in the previous post. I also suggest not to stretch tires.

Are your new wheels heavier or lighter than OEM wheels? Do you have OEM suspension?

Non RFT tires like Michelin PSS provide exceptional handling but have a different sidewall characteristic: it's not as stiff. Most drivers don't notice the change in handling. But some do and replace stock (softer) shocks with Bilstein or Koni shocks. Plenty of choices.

Thanks guys for advices.

Not lowered car running oem suspension.
No idea about weight of rims.

Those sizes should work fine for you. You can also run 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 tire sizes, if you want a more profile look. Although, that may look a little better if you are lowered.

Ditch your run flat tires! Non-RFT will be so much more comfortable. Just don't get a flat!

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but rather not start a new one if asking roughly the same. I'm looking to pull the trigger on these wheels, and also looking for a flush look with the fender. They said these offsets will be flush, but I'm hearing/seeing conflicting arguments. I have '16 428i Coupe with M Sport. Will also be getting the MPSS tires and I'm not lowered, but MIGHT lower it later. Also, for an extra $30 each tire, they can change the offsets up to +5mm.

Will these offsets sit flush?

I'm curious about this too

As far as i can understand after reading and searching these mentioned wheel's dimensions will set your rear wheel wider for 1 inch (9.5 instead 8.5) and 1cm ( ET 37 instead ET 47)
Practically that means your future wheel will be 3.54cm wider than the stock.
Is this ok for you ? You have to check

Diameter was too much, don't want to mess with speedo, etc... this was as closed in diameter as the stock 225/45/18 as I could get in fatter 19s... hope that makes sense... cheers
