E92 wheel fittment gurus please advise...
I am very familiar with wheel fittment, sizes, tires, offsets, concavity, etc in general but struggling to learn the max i can achieve with the e92 (new to me) Im looking at a 19x9 and 19x10 wheel where i can customize my offsets to +/- 1mm. My stipulations:
1. I dont want to run less than a 265/30 on the rear for function, pref a 275 2. I dont want to run less than a 235/35 on the front, pref a 245. 3. I am most def willing to roll fenders as much as possible, not pull and beyond 4. I will be low, not slammed, but dropped to the point of achieving 0mm fender gap right about to or barely tucking tire both front/rear (via coilovers). What is the lowest possible et I can achieve (accurate to +/- 1mm) with the above stipulations in mind and running 19x9 and 19x10 wheels without any rub or only rub with 4 passangers in the car? Please, serious wheel gurus, advise to accuracy of +/- 1mm and much thanks to anyone who can help me out here |

My current Setup:
BBS CH 19x8.5 +20 (235/35/19) 19x10 +20 (265/30/19) Even with fenders rolled, rubs not a whole lot when no one is in the car. A car full of fatass people will burn rubber faster than doing a burnout. I probably just to roll my fenders more to flatten out the inside. |

fenders can/will be rolled no problem, but not planning on getting any camber plates for the front, so with 22 in the front on a 9" w/ 235 and no way to adjust camber except the bs pin removal im guessing thats a no go... |

I would say run +25 up front, with 235 and you should not rub, and if you want to be safe you can do +27
as for the rear: 19x10 (+25) with a 265 will rub. You can either: 1) run negative camber (maybe addition degree or so) 2) go with 255 tire (which you said you actually wanted bigger then 265) 3) get +30 for the rears this should give you just enough clearance especially with a roll if you want to run the 265 WITHOUT running additional negative camber

But DAMN, a 19x10 et+30 with a 265/30 is the best we can do with stock alignment settings in place and fully rolled fenders? This fittment is a damn far cry from my Z... |

Anyway I had 9.5 et17 10.5 et18 Volk GTS 255/285 within oem camber/toe specs and only needed a slight roll in the rear. And my setup was considered conservative/functional. |
