Which wheel size?

Klimo · 11-11-2014, 02:16 PM

I am order new winter wheels and want to run 19/255s all the way around.

Should I be getting the 19x9 or 19x10 rim?

Car is '12 50i with fender flares.

Thanks!

Do you have OEM 19" wheels? Just get winter tires that will fit those.

You'll probably want to go with a 17 or 18 for winter use. Lots of affordable tire options in that diameter.

If you have 20's on your x5 now, I would recommend 19's. The 18's feel really soft compared to 20's.

I don't believe that 17's will even fit on the e70

The ride going from 20" RFTs to 18" snow tires was noticably more confortable.

Umm ok. No answer to my question yet. lol

Does the 255 tire fit the 19x9 rim or the 19x10 rim? I plan on running 255 at all 4 corners.

I run style 211's for my winters and they are 9.0 width. Most of the 255 tires are spec'd for 7-9 inch rims.

Klimo · 11-13-2014, 10:46 AM

Perfect. Thanks.

I just wanted to double check the fitment of the 19x9s im ordering. 48mm offset. That should be good at all 4 corners, right?

What offset do you have for front and rear?

Klimo · 11-14-2014, 02:59 PM

I am just trying to confirm fitment of 19x9" 48et wheels for all 4 corners of my '12 X5. Do I need a different offset for the rear set or will those work all the way around?

Having trouble getting this confirmed. Thanks
