Are you sure this are the correct dimensions?

I think 295/30/22 or 335/25/22 are the correct dimensions.

Hi, yes I'm sure this is the size I'm looking for.

Since my other car's front tire is 265/40 R22
So, I need a 305/35 R22 to have the same side wall height for the staggered set up.

So which tire is better suited for hot climate? Vredestein or Pirelli?

Pls help me decide

@bmwstve, what you may want to achieve is the same overall rolling diameter, not the sidewall thickness.
Unless if you don't mind the computer and traction control goes crazy on you.

Hi, Thank you for pointing that out.

What tire size should I go with?
Because I only plan to change the rear tires.

My front tires is 265/40/22
What should the rear tires be for a 10.5 inch rear rim?
Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi I used tire size calculator
They seem to have the same Overall rolling diameter only 0.2% difference.

Will this mess up the computer and traction control?

bmwstve , sorry, forgot to reply on your post.
Your overall diameter is off by 1.5"+.
You want to maintain OEM overall diameter, which is 28.7" to avoid any rubbing or sensory problem.
I believe opasha is running 285/35/22, which has 29.85" overall diameter. His setup still didn't trigger any sensory issues, but he has some rubbing on a full turn.

This is correct. The rubbing only occurs on full turn in reverse for each side, so I try to reverse turn at about 98% turn. I have 285/35R22 on 4 22x10 offset 40 wheels. Other than that, no issues whatsoever. Very comfortable ride and protects my wheels quite well.
