Tire Recs

I'm buying 19 x 8.5 et35 wheels. Square set up. Any tire recommendations? These will most likely be my warm weather tires only.

255/35/19 most grip like @bimmerguy91, https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...8&postcount=13

245/35/19 if you want a sharper turn-in response with slight grip trade off. better if lowered since 25.8" diameter.

buy the best tires you can afford. what's your tire budget?

Appreciate the input. No budget as long as I'm getting a great product.

Yup. Running that exact tire/size. See my thread here for more info, including which "version" to buy since there are several.
