* 2010 BMW X5 M Blue
* 2004 BMW 530i Sport, Silver Gray

* 2006 530I Monaco Blue / Grey, M-Tech Front and M5 rear bumper and side skirts. M5 lip spoiler. M5 166M wheels.
What is the correct tires size I should install on my M5, M166 wheels to fit it on 2006 530i without any rubbingg?
I have purchased a set of four M5 wheels with original Conti tires size: front 255/40/19 and rear 285/35/19. The rear wheels / tires fir to my 530i. The front ones are /slightly/ rubbing. Obviously I need to change the tires all around. Please advice! Thanks

I am running same wheels on Falkens, 245/35/19 front and 285/35/19 rear with no rubbing on my 530i MY05
I agree with Dennis. I would go 285/35/19. It is a bit more expensive, but it's definately worth it.

With the ET12 166 front rims it will be close. Some say it works and others say no. I am installing 245/35/19 front and 285/30/19 rear on my 535i with 166 wheels.

What kind of tires are you going with? I looked on Tirerack recently and all the 285/30's seemed really expensive.
