better for what? one is 25.8" diameter the other 1" inch taller at 26.8" almost F34 size

26.8" will decrease wheel gap, ride better, have more impact protection, fix speedo error but slow your acceleration(albeit slightly). 25.8" is little shorter than OEM, opposite qualities of the taller and have better steering response.

here is a thread of the taller size on an F31... https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=849595

personally i'd just put 255/30/20 (26") square. oem size and most width for N55 torque
