F30 oem 437m - 235/40 + 265/35 *lowered help*

Curious if anyone is running 235/40 + 265/35 or 235/35 + 275/30 LOWERED on springs? I went through all the post and see 235/35 lower or they either have f31,f32,f36.... Would also help to know if you are xdrive or rwd.

Im debating between 235/40 + 265/35 or 235/35 + 275/30... to keep xdrive happy, not lowered yet but will be going with HR sport springs.

Really tempted to go for 235/40 for the added sidewall and speedo correction, but 235/35 + 275/30 is safer bet for lowering/rubbing while turning but messes up the speedo even more and less sidewall. Heard conflicting info on rubbing with 235/40 on f30 chassis.

*PLEASE ONLY F30 to help others in the future (no coupes, grancoupes or touring as I believe they have different spacing in the wheel well) *

either way you wont rub if you're on springs. I have 235/40/19 and 265/35/19 I should've gone 265/30 front and 275/30 rear since F30s can easily fit that. I think you'd be happy with 235/35 and 275/30

Someone else made this, but it helped me in my tire buying decisions.

I'm 275/30/19 by 245/35/19 RWD lowered on Dinan springs.
