265-295/40/18 RS4 will fit fine on OEM suspension and your listed wheels with no rubbing. 275/40/18 fronts RS4 would be better for the stagger but may rub a little. It's really close as the 275/35/19 fits fine and the 40/18 are only a few mm bigger. I can't find anyone who has actually tested this fit yet (ps you should do it!) Don't go with the 35/18 profile they are way too short imo. Though 275-295/35/18 would be OK I guess. The 40 profile is likely overall better even if the fronts are a little narrower. Don't go with 35 F and 40 R profile as it's too much stagger. |

That's exactly the setup I ended up ordering for now: 265/35+285/35. Getting the tires mounted on Tuesday, so we'll see how bad it is. I did want to go 265/40+295/40, but the 295/40 are special order and I needed something before next weekend.

Does 18x11 et35 with 305/35/18 (Nt01) rub on rear fender? I think it is fine during street driving. I worry about during hard corner and/or compressed at the track.
I understand the ideal setup is et44 |

I have rear 18x11 Et 43. At the time, the reason was I wanted the option of fitting a 315/30/18 if I wanted too. Overkill and unnecessary. Just FYI, the widest front tire I've put on this car is 285/645/18 on an 18x10 Et 27 wheel w/ a 5mm spacer. But if I were to do it again, I should've have ordered my square set up at 18x10.5 Et 27. I should've ordered it in 10.5's. GL

it would not be a good idea to run the 275/40 and 295/40 on stock 9/10in wheels correct? |

First off, the grip is so much better than the PSS and they feel similar to the SC3 (non R) tires on my Camaro 1LE. But that's to be expected going to a 200 TW tire. I dropped four seconds on my PB lap time the first session out. Of course that's partly due to getting used to the car overall as this is only my third event with the M3, and first event with the camber plates after chewing through the PSS so fast. I'm on the fence about the diameter decrease. On track, it feels good. But there is a noticable difference in shifting locations. I have to shift from 4 to 5 and 3 to 4 on straights I could hold the lower gear before. So I agree that the 40 series would be better, but marginally. The 35 series is still a good choice. On the highway, the speedo error is annoying. I can't sugar coat that. But the ride is still comfortable and road noise is minimal. |
