Hello all,

As new member to this forum and first time BMW owner I would appreciate everyone's input on the following questions.

I recently took ownership of a 2008 Pre- LCI 335 xi. The previous owner up graded to an M3, and gave me a very reasonable deal on 4 BBS CHR wheels and tires. So with that said, I'm in the process of considering purchasing tires, however I'm not sure on what tire sizes will allow me to utilize this package because I'm also planning on installing the uninstalled ST suspension coil over kit that was included in the purchase of the xi.

The BBS wheels are Fronts 19x8.5 - ET 32 and rear wheels are 19x 9.5 - ET 35.

I am also utilizing 'X - Delete' which is supposedly disabling the front drive train changing the AWD to 2 wheel drive.

With all of that info, I'd like to know if anyone has installed 19's on a 335xi with coilovers and had ANY issues with rubbing in both the front and rear fender wells?
The bigger concerns are tire sizes that won't rub and allow a staggered set up with these wheel sizes mentioned.

The tire dealers I've spoken too, have recommended 235/35/19 Fronts, and 26530/19 in the rear utilizing the ET 32 up front, and ET 35 in the rear.

Can anyone on here confirm this set up and NOT have problems rubbing or damaging the Transfer case.

Thanks in advance !
