Question Michelin Primacy Tour A/S tires?

** 2016 340i w/ 2VF adaptive suspension **

Hi all,

I am about to get a set of 19" wheels (19 X 8.5 & 19 X 9.5) and am looking into Michelin tires. I've had a few sets of Michelin A/S 3+ previously and am now considering a Michelin A/S GT tire - the Michelin Primacy Tour A/S. I drive 98% on the highway as a straight commuter and would really enjoy the smooth and quiet ride the Primacy Tour A/S provides. The A/S 3+ is more sporty for sure, wears quickly, and is a bit more loud.

Trouble is the Primacy Tour A/S comes in limited 19" sizes. Would 225/45/19 front and 255/45/19 rear cause any issues (rubbing, speedometer error, etc.)? The OEM 19" is 225/40/19 and 255/35/19... I imagine the Primacy Tour A/S sizes above may be a bit too tall?

Thanks for the advice in advance!

Thank you.
