I put a set of Pirelli 275/40/19's on the back

and thats just too much beef for the rear...I'm having some rub issues, and am in the process of finding the areas and rolling them slightly. the rub isn't severe, just on good humps.

I only ordered those cause thats what my tire shop told me that would fit...however, the combination with the lowering HnR springs, put the rear too low with those big tires.

I should of ordered the 285/35/19, but I was too paranoid that it was not enough cushion between the wheel and the road, hence the pothole rim bend syndrome is the worry.

I'll get a thinner set after I've worn these pups down.

oh, BTW, if you know anyone that needs a good set of 19 inch for a 5 series, I'm selling the tires that came off those hammans:

2 - 19" * 8.5" w/ Pirelli P7000 235/35/19
2 - 19" * 9" w/ Dunlop Sport 9000 265/30/19
