225/45/19?

E60525d · 02-15-2019, 08:35 AM

Standard front 19" tyre size is 225/40/19. Question is, does 225/45/19 fit, has anyone tried it?

OEM tyre diameter on F3/4 series is 26"... 225/45/19 is 27"(F34 size). Are you increasing the rear one profile size as well?

245/35-20 is 26.8" tall and fractions of an inch from the strut in front. This is generally considered the limit.

225/45-19 is even taller at 27". I would be very concerned about strut interference.
