Front tire help
Hey guys so I have a 2008 e92 335i it's slightly lowered on dinan springs. I just put 255/35 18 PSS on the rear and now looking to put fronts on. On a 18x7.5 ET49 rim up front could I fit a 245/35 18 PSS? Fairly new to changing rims and trying to fit tires so bare with me if you could.

On a 7.5" I would only go 225/40. 235/40 would fit but it was be ballooned and feel sloppy.

I agree with Harambe - 245 almost certainly won't fit.
The offset of the wheels you have chosen is 15mm more inward than stock: anything wide will likely rub the springs, and 245 is almost the limit for a stock setup. |

OP, You'll need a pretty large spacer for it to not look sunk in. 15mm will give the look of a stock 3 series offset.
