My fellow M3ers,

I have a question that I am in bad need of assistance. It concerns tire application. What is the widest application I can get for the rear without them extending past the wheel well. Currenly have 225/45s on rear, AM wondering if 235/50s application would do..PLEASE ADVISE. I want to get the rear tires to align up as close as possible to its wheel well, do they make 245/50s or would that extend out past the wheel well.....I stand awaiting expertise knowledge..THANK U....GO AIR FORCE!!!

You can get 9" at the rear with no problem..I have 8.5" at the rears with 225/45ZR16 I don't know about 245/50s
