ZCP wheels and tire size

Dudes - adding an ESS 625 kit to my 13 E92 and my tires are only 265 in the rear on and 245 up front on the ZCP rims. I need more grip with the added power. ACM is telling me I can put up to 295 tires on the back on the stock ZCP wheels and 265 on the front. has anyone done this? Do i need to get a bigger rim to fit the tire? Hope this isn't a stupid question

Sell your 359s and buy a set of wider wheels (at least 9.5J front and 10.5J rear) for wide tires.

yes it's a stupid question... it's been discussed and posted many times. in fact i believe there's two threads on it now in the wheel and tire section

Im running those tires 265s and 295s x 30 on set of BBS CHR 19's on standard suspension, Im even using 12mm front and 15mm rear spacers and no issues.
BBS are known to handle wider tires though, No sure about your ZCP OEMS, Kidding seems to be correct
