Have you investigated Tire Rack?

rjd26 04-17-2017 11:58 AM

yeah i didn't see anything

I can tell you that Bridgestone Potenza S-04 Pole Position have small rim-protecting lips.

rjd26 04-17-2017 12:06 PM

thats awesome, do you know if there are ones with bigger lips or is that the only one you know of?

The Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 has a pronounced lip at the base of the sidewall.

^ +1 for the DWS. decent protector.

OP - this question is best directed to a tire distributor like Tire Rack. they will likely have knowledge of various tire options to suit your needs.

Just avoid curbs like the plague and you'll be much better off that hoping a thin rubber rib will help :)

I rubbed a corner once, I think it would have helped if my ex hadn't screamed as I was approaching it. If I had only a 1/4, perhaps a 1/2 inch more...lol. That was with my 330i.
