Were they the original runflats from the 403s? What brand were they? Any close ups of the 225 on the 9J rim to see the stretch?

ie: 1% / 1.5% means the front wheel is 1% larger than stock and the rear wheels is 1.5% larger than stock. Ideally, both of these percentages would be the same 1% / 1% or 1.5% / 1.5% to guarantee the front and back are rotating at the same speed, but in reality, the CPU has to compensate for this as the front and rear tires wear differently over time. As for 275/35R19, you are correct. Some members use this setup just fine with no rubbing, while others either find slight rubbing or don't like the ride and have been forced down to 265/35R19.

More poke?
More width? More sidewall height? More overall height?

I have seen others run that same setup, so yes it will work, depends on the offset. Maybe ET35 all around?

See diagram You will not want to use any spacers with a 437m wheel on a 440 as the wheel already extends past the fender both front and back. You may want to use a 5mm spacer on the front if you choose a replica wheel.

UPDATE 4-15-17:
One of my front tire is still leaking air. Shops cannot find what it is, they have tested everything, even the tpms sensor. They cannot figure it out. I think it's leaking because it is (stretched). BUT other one holds just fine, it's only one that is giving me issues. I want to purchase two new front tires. So, my question is can I run 235/35/19 with rears being 255/35/19? My car is an XI will there be an issue? I know with XIs its trickier. Question is Can I run 235/35/19 fronts with 255/35/19 rears? My current setup is 225/40/19 and 255/35/19 I want 235/35/19 and 255/35/19 if it's okay |

Oguz - I'm doing a tremendous amount of research before purchasing wheels and this has been one of the best forum posts for it.
One of my OCD over-analysis traits catches the difference between the 437m OEM vs Replica look. The OEM is darker on the outside spokes and edges, while the replicas are lighter. I like the OEM darker look, but that cost difference is maybe a couple $$$thousand$$. To answer your question as far as setup, I would try to go what BMW recommends for your car. But if you want to change it up, You should also consider the size of the wheel width and offset to determine your tire setup. |

for all you running these tires on your 437m wheels:
(front) 225/40R19; (rear) 255/35R19 HOW HAVE THEY DONE OVER AN EXTENDED TIME? (I still have my 403M tires that are new and I want to keep them for my 437M wheels when those wider tires need replacing on my M2) thanks! |

finally got my pair of OEM 437M on with continental ECS tires on the 340xi. looks and feels great!
maybe a drop in the future but enjoying the travel and compliance and nibble handling for now. stockers were: 225/40 255/35 with the 437Ms swapped tires to: 235/40 265/35 Last edited by monkiboy; 06-13-2017 at 11:08 PM.. |
