19"s not 20"s rub, you must roll it but it is easy for a good shop.

It's probably been said multiple times, without knowing what exact offset the wheels have you don't know if they will catch or not.
With a totally wrong offset, they can even catch a rolled fender and with the correct size/offset combination you don't even need to have a look at your fender/arches.

It's a little bid like "how long is a piece of string ?"

By the way ats77, I run this combo in 20" with the correct offsets and the do NOT catch nowhere. This is under full load and decent speed on your not so good parts of belgian motorways with all sorts of long and short bumps. (you know the ones Oostend - Brugge - Antwerp - and then towards Eindhoven)

i agree you have to know what kind of rims you have and what is the offset, but if the offset is correct, with that spec shouldn't rub, i don't have any issue with rubbing, 245/35/19 and 275/35/19 with sports package and loaded with 5 passengers in the back too. With the 20" rims i have 245/35/20 and the back is 275/30/20.

wow Ivan those are good tyre size for 19
275/35 doesnt rubb without lowering? that would be great as i want o protect the rim as much as possible,in BMW magazine the suggested spec is as follow

245/35/19 275/30/19 and i think 7 offset front and 8 offset rear something like this

Thanks for the info
