odd fitment question; 245 rear and 215 front?

NSFW 335i · 12-31-2011, 11:07 AM

I came across FREE snow tires.
215 45 18 (set of 4)
245 50 18 (set of 4)

so my question is will these it on my car?

Can I put the 215 45 18 on the front on 18x8 rims and the 245 50 18 on the rear on 18x9 rims, with out any problem?

will this setup be odd or will it work?

didnt mention I have a 2008 335i coupe sports package.
also, if 245 do not work, I have a set a wheels, 18x8 box..

The rears are way too tall. You can run 215 all around the rear will be stretched though.

I have my fenders rolled, does this help with the rear fitment?

The OD of a 245/50/18 is 27.65. That's way too big

Forget the 245/50/18, those are huge for the e9x.

The 215 should be no problem on the 18x8 correct?

remmib · 01-01-2012, 11:59 AM

^No, that's fine.

You can even use the 215's on the 9" if you font mind the stretch or get a 245/35/18
