My buddy has a 2012 F11 535d Msport on 19" BMW alloys.
He's decided that he's going to replace the run flats with normal tyres, however he's confused about the tyre size.
Currently the car has 245/45 19 in each corner, however the rear rims look like they could take wider tyres.
Has he got the correct size? I would have expected a car like this to be running wider rear tyres as standard.

I have a 2013 F11 535d and it has the same sizes - I have already ditched the runflats for normal in the same sizes - I used conti star marked ride is noticeably less harsh.

the wheels are all the same sizes but you could put larger on the rear - check the manual and also the label on the door frame - it mentions larger on the rear - but I don't think you are really gonna gain anything, it's hardly a sports car....

I think the F10s sometimes have staggered sizes, but the F11 has different rear suspension and less room to play with.
