Upgrade Tire Size - 17 inch rims
#1
I have an interest in upgrading to wider tires for summer, but am just fine with the Style 278 17 inch rims that are stock with my 2010 non-sport 528i. Not planning to lower or modify the suspension. What kind of success would I likely have with a set of 255/45 17s?

AFAIK the recommended up-size is 245/45-17 ... so if you go wider let us know how it goes ... GL!

That's true - the 245s would be an exact diameter match, while the 255s would be about a 1.5% increase in diameter. That increase would go about halfway to offsetting the sizable BMW speedometer error, which would be a nice bonus.
