ssr comps 18x9.5 +27 Help with fitment

I have a 2007 e90 335i with stock sport suspension. I just bought a square set of ssr competion rims. They are 18x9.5+27. They also can with 275/35/18 toyo ra1 tires with lots of thread. I'm pretty sure the 275 will never fit the front. What size tires should i run and how much work if any will i need to do to make these fit? Will i have to roll fenders?

I'm thinking of selling the ra1 tires getting 275/35/18 pilot super sport for the rear or should i go 265/35? And 235/40/18 pilot super sport for the front. or maybe 245/40/18 for the front. I'm trying to go as wide as possible. Or it is possible to go square 265/35/18?

can i run these rims without rolling my fenders? If so how wide should i go ?
if i roll my fenders how wide can i go?
thanks for your help

At rear you most likely are fine without rolling your fenders or maybe slightly rolled fenders. Front you could basically fit something like 265/35/18, but it will require camber and it's not adjustable from factory, so you would need camber plates. Of course if front is 265 then rear should also be same size.

Here is 18x9.5 et35 + spacers front and rear with 265/35/18 http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1052777

And couple others with 18x9.5 square and wide front tyre.

If you want to fit 9.5 with 265/35/18 you will need to do some fender work and play with camber.
