3 Series GT 19's Fitment

bmw-again · 03-30-2014, 09:19 PM

I purchased a set of VMR 19s 19x8.5 et38 19x9.5 et30 for my 09 335i. I just took delivery of a 14 328xi GT and I want to know what size tires I need to run on this package. I believe the stock m-sport 19's are running 225-45-19 and 255-40-19. I don't think I will have any problem with this offset on the car since they are not an aggressive set at all. I just need to make sure the tires will work. My stock wheels are 225-55-17s. Any help with this would be great. If rims wont fit then I need to get them sold and start over with a whole new package. Thanks any help is appreciated.

They might not have been aggressive on the E90/E92 chassis but it is substantially more aggressive on the F3* chassis. I am uncertain about the GT line but on the F30/F32, the rear offset is very aggressive.

X2 on the rears. They will be pretty aggressive. I sold some AGs to a 328i GT customer not too long ago with a 19x9.5 et43 rear. That is recommended fitment. The ET30 could work but you will need a stretched tire.

Thanks I just talked to VMR today and they said it will not work. I will be posting my 19's for sale tomorrow on the e90 forum. What a shame just had them powder coated!
