Hello all, my rear rims are 9J and the previous owner had 235s fitted on them and whilst the slightly stretched look is neat on crazy wide rims, it does nothing for the stance of the 8 series rolling on 9Js at the rear. From factory I believe they were fitted with 265/40/17s and I'd like to go OEM but my local tyre place has none in stock. I'm being offered 255/40 Conti Contact sports or 275/40 Michelin Pilots. I want to beef up the stance from the rear and I'm inclined to go for the 275s but will they take over a 9J rim?
Input appreciated!
