What's up gentlemen. This will be my first post of many.

I bought a 07 335i 6speed manual sedan. Took delivery last month with 46k miles. Nice car.

Just damaged a non run flat 255/35 - 18..... I'm looking to go ahead and replace all 4.

I want à thicker tire. Low pros are sweet but my daily drive is ruff... Some parts of Houston need a major face lift.

Any suggestions on a thicker tire that won't rub when I turn or look like crap. Keep in mind I'm riding on the factory 18 inch staggered BMW rims.

Please advise.

If you want to go a little thicker you might try looking at the 255/45r18

Tires that I recommend in this size would be the Hankook Ventus V12 (K110), Continental Extreme Contact DWS, General G-Max, or Yokohama S-Drive

For you fronts you should be running 225/40r18s and the four tire recommendations that I made all have the same models available in 225/40r18s.

I love my Conti DWS.

One of the best looking and performing tires out there IMO.

Thanx guys.

255-45 18, doesn't look to big does it?

Is there a major ride difference between the 3? Or at least a smoother ride over the street cracks and grooves?
