What wheels are you going for? Do you know the widths? I can help out with the offsets but need more info.

u will most likely get the et 35 and et 33 set if I am not mistaken. Also matters what tires you choose, I would go with 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 so you dont rub.

The model is 19” staggered VB3 in super silver. they're offering me et 40 and et45 and i don't know if this is correct. I had a bad experience last year....

that offset is way too high for our cars. very un-aggresive.

Ask if they have a set with e90 offsets (usually in low to mid 30s).

You could get the et 40 and et 45 ones and throw a 10mm spacer on front and a 15mm on back. then you'd be aggresive and set.

my information may be irrelevant if the 09 LCI's offsets are different than older e90s...not sure lol.

Even though you have the LCI e90, there's no need to go with ET40 in the front, ET35 is fine.
But ET33 on LCI is aggresive on the reat, ET45 may be the safest choice if you want no rubbing at all.

19x8.5 ET40 and 19x9.5 ET33 with 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 would be ideal for your car in the VB3 CSLs.

This e90 LCI has ET33 with 275/30, which rub, but 265/30 might work.
