str86diesel Posted February 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 (edited) Kev man what happened to your Cummins man what kind of new ride did you get It was time for a change. Between the truck market absolutely crashing with the economy and with how much the wife and I drive, the trucks were just starting to cost too much money and we figured it was time to get something more economical. You figure our fuel bill alone was well over $750 a month. So, here's the new fleet. A pair of 2009 BMW 335i XDrive's.

ptcary Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 (edited) I absolutely LOVE seeing a 3-series with a staggered offset fitment or wider rear wheels/tires! 8.5" up front and 9.5" or 10" on the back. **Edit....ooops, "xdrive"/ I am guessing that's AWD, so maybe a staggered fitment would not work anyway. Hope you find what you like. I vote for Breyton!

str86diesel Posted February 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 I'm with ya...I too am a huge fan of staggered wheels. Unfortunately with the AWD system, there is only a tolerance of 1% between the front and rear wheel diameter. So the only way that I would be able to achieve is by having 235/35/19 up front and 265/30/19 in the rear, in which really limits which tires I can go with and the only benefit is that controls understeering. So i'm just going to stick with a single tire size all around to keep things simple. Quote 2k6 Dodge Ram 2500...CUMMINS POWERED - SOLD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
