235/35/19's. Will they work?

JD3 · 06-04-2010, 12:57 PM

Hey everyone. I've got a set of 235/35/19's that I'm trying to sell but if I don't I was considering going with a square set of 19's for my Z4 (so that i can rotate the tires). According to my math, that setup with produce about a 1/2 inch of extra heighth. I can't imagine that would create a rubbing problem, but will it look weird? I don't want to lower the car b/c it's on warranty and is CPO.
Any advice or experiences?

In terms of the tire size vs. stock, yes, it will work. It's within 2% of the stock diameter (the cutoff is +-2% of stock, outside of that range ABS and other issues emerge).

Speedo will show slightly faster than stock 18s with stock tires.

Double check my work and run the numbers yourself: http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCalculator.asp

What wheels, what wheel offsets, what wheel width etc?

I'm not going to go that route anymore but I didn't really have anything particular wheels in mind. I've just got a good set of 235/35s sitting around and figured if I could get away with using them I would. If I find a nice square set up I still might but I think I'll go with a 225/35 and 265/30 set up if I do get something.
