I was considering getting a new set of rims, going crazy with 19 x 8.5" front and 19 x 10" rear, what size tyre in particular on the rear would I need to look for? Is a 265 too narrow?
E9x fitment. I know I'll need arches rolled on the rear anyway.

Do you know the offsets of the new wheels? If they are reasonable enough you should be able to fit 275 anyway
ive said it before
www.willtheyfit.com ;)
Fronts looking like 19x8.5 ET35 rears looking like 19x10 ET30
I don't honestly know the standard existing offset so can't really tell using the willtheyfit site!
If the fronts are 245/35 then a 275/30 would do. Depending on the fronts I'd imagine you could prob get any size from 255 to 285 on the rear.
Not keen on the stretched look and will be getting arches rolled on rear anyway, but I had 19s on my old e46 with a 255 on the rear. Very slight stretch but I'd like to go with minimum 265 which will probably have slight stretch too. 275 probably crazy to source!?
Irrelevent to the the offset you can still use the site to give you a basic image of what stretch will be needed
Last time I checked there wasn't too much of a price difference between 265 & 275. I was looking at 275 for my own car as a lot of guys in the UK run that size at the rear with no issuesQuote:

Is the e9x the same fitment and offset to the e46 m then? Didn't know that.
