pharrari,
I own an M3 so it calls for a 5% downgrade in tire series for the rears. It's so the ride height will remain the same. I'm electing to go with 35 series all around, that's why i'm selling the 245/275s.

 

Teamsr2k1 I SOLD THE 255/35/19S and have only the 245/275s and will be selling a pair of 285/30s T1Rs on Monday. The 285s have 85% treadlife and will be selling for $350 shipped/$300 local pick up.

 

Oh I understand now. Thats how the M6 came, asked local BMW dealer and they couldn't give me an answer. Called another dealer, still didn't know why other than factory specs.

Thank you for explaining this to me

I'm looking at 35 profile for all 4, good luck with your sale!

thanks

 

Hey man, just to confirm you only have 2 - 245/35/19's right? How much shipped to 28078? Thanks......

-p

 

that's correct deckdout2, just a pair of 245/35/19s. PM sent with shipping costs to 28078.

 

are you interested in selling the rims by any chance?...please pm with response thank you

 

My other deal didn't go through, I'll be needing these if still available!

PM Sent!

 

Are we still meeting today? I dont want to make the trip for no reason. call my cell phone. Thanks!!

 

That's to keep similar sidewall "height" for the front and the rear.. front 35% of 245mm is 85.75mm, and rear 30% of 275 is 82.5mm, but running 35% of 275 would be 96.25mm, which is much higher than the front. So if ppl run 245/35/ and 275/35 you will see the rear tire looking much "thicker"..

hopefully this helps

 

you still got the 245s? can you send me some pics? also, where in Diego are you?

 

for now gs..the link to pics is in the thread...also, I have TOYO T1R 285/30/19(2) FOR SALE TOO:$350 shipped/$300 local pick up.
