20" 405M Square Tire Setup (xDrive) Question

Looking to run 245/35/20 square on my 405Ms. The overall diameter will change to 26.8" from 26". Alternatively thinking of doing a 235/35/20 & 265/30/20. Doing this to get a slightly thicker sidewall on the tires. I am also going to be installing lowering springs this summer (ACS or Eibachs).

Any issues running this size, and is anyone currently running the 405m or 624m with this size? Will the front rub the spring perch or the fender once lowered? The car is a 2014 335i X drive.

405M Wheel specs
Front: 8"J x 20" Offset 36
Rear: 8.5"J x 20" Offset 47

Got the exact answer for you buddy

2014 f32 xdrive on square 255/35/20 624m's.

Fits absolutely perfect except for the slightest of rubbing on full lock

Other than that I really love the look and fills my wheel wells much better than my old 17's

Yes let me add them to Imgur and I'll post a link. I don't have very close up shots as I'm getting them repainted as I fixed up some curb rash this past week so new shots will come later as well

Here's the pics I have now:

Decided to stick with the standard tire sizing of the 225 & 255 setup for now. Definitely not as stretched as the OEM Pirelli run-flats tires were.

My thoughts exactly, they look fantastic!
