sure, you'll be able to slam it more easily, but you won't be able to drive many places without constant rim repairs. the stock tire size with 19" is barely enough sidewall and you're talking about reducing it even more? consider how an m5 looks, and it's tire is actually a lot larger overall diameter than a stock e60

 

Yes, good point... these wheels are coming off of an E46 sedan. I'm assuming that this would be the better fit for tires:

Front: 245/35/19 (8.5" rim)
Rear: 275/30/19 (9.5" rim)

?

 

That's the recommended size and I've been on the 19" w/ that sizes for almost 5 years now and for my next size I'll go 285/30-19 ... that way the radius will be even for both front & rear.

 

I was thinking about moving to the 285 rear as well in order to match the overall diameter closer... are you also running ET35 offsets?

EDIT: Nevermind - I can see that you're running ET40 rear offsets. Nothing a spacer can't fix.

 

I think I'll be OK running 285 on ET40 but you may want to be careful if on ET35 especially if you lower the car like me ... it may rub.

 

anyone know if 19x9.5 et33 will fit all around ?

 

I'll give you an answer to a different question. Have you read the relevant threads? No, you have not.

Most of this is personal subjective preference.

Read. Make up your mind.

Then post the results so someone else who uses the search will see the answer before posting lazy questions.

 

Did I ask a different question ? NO, therefore I don't need a answer to a question I didn't ask.
How do you know if I searched i didn't find results ? NO
Is this not a board to post opinions and questions ?
Who are you to tell a person to post or not post questions that is related to this thread ?
How do you know if future members will or will not ask this question ?

 

thanks for answering the question. obviously you have not read the threads.

why not have people keep asking the same crap over and over, because it's lazy and fills threads so long it becomes too many pages to read through!

if you found the results, then why are you asking again?

threads are to be read, not made longer for lack of initiative.

do you call the dealer about your car or first consult the manual? it's no different.

 

Since you knew the answer you could have just said yes or no, and why would a person post a question if he/she knew the answer to ? You are making assumptions that the person didn't search, what if is he/she couldn't find the answer ? instead you are making this thread full with useless comments, i'll just end right here because i do respect this thread and don't want to full this thread with useless conversations, AND YES I will consult my dealer if can't find something in the manual and if I did missed it, then point a gun to my head and pull the trigger.
