M Parallel 18" Tyre Sizes E38

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have 18" M Parallel Alloys on my E38, they came factory 

fitted, I have always just changed the tyres going by 

what it said on the tyre wall but I noticed on a few 

sites people reckon the tyre sizes I am using may be 

wrong.

One site states

F | 235/50/18

R | 275/40/18

and another site reckons

F | 255/45/18

R | 285/40/18

______________________________________

Now I have always thought that my back tyres never have 

enough rim protector and they look a bit stretched, plus 

I am changing them every 5/6 months (and its not the rear 

arms)would this be because my tyres are wrong.

Any help would be appreciated.
