My Ride: 2005 545i
Default Back in an E60 and wondering if 245/45/19 fit well on my 535xi?
I just picked up an E60 again after selling my 545i in 2014. I got a super clean 2008 535xi from a member on here a couple weeks back for a daily. My other car is an f80 Zcp. The E60 currently has PS4's and I am about to get ready for the upcoming winter. I am currently running 245/40/19 on a square setup but would love to fill in the wheel gap a bit and add some cushion to the ride. So does anyone have any experience running 245/45/19 here? I did try searching and did not come up with anything satisfactory. Thanks in advance.

For winter, you want a narrower tire. Bridgestone makes the BLIZZAK LM-32 in a 225/45R19, which will give you the best of both worlds.
