Ive found that in order to maintain a rolling diameter of under 1% i will need to run 235/265 Now my question is: Will I be able to run 235/40 in the front for more meat on the front tire and keep the rears as is (235/35) or would i have to go 235/35 - 265/30? the idea of stretched tires up front in NYC is giving me anxiety lol PS. i got a flat last night up front with 245/35 up front
I had 225/35/19 on my e90 et 24 and it was a small stretch on my 9" wheel.
If you go 235/40 you will rub and you will break your transfer case. In short yes you can do that but after a few miles it will break your transfer case.

235/35/19 and 265/30/19. Thats it.

The only time you will have an issue is if you suck at parking. No protection so don't penetrate lol
