Hi Guys.

I need to replace the rears on my 3.0 M3 Saloon.

At the moment I have 225/40s all round with the fronts still having good tread

Would it be worth going up to 235/40 or even 245/40 for the rears (assuming the rims will fit the tyres) and if so will the increased tyre wall height of the rears (ill keep the 225/40s on the front for now) cause any problems with the handling.?

Cheers

I run 235/40 on the front and 245/40 on the rear, handling wise the smaller tyres are on the front compared to the rears the more under steer you will get
