Wheels and tire package to gives the aggressive looks?

I'm wondering what kinda tire/ rims package to get for e92 to get the aggressive looks. To me the aggressive looks is where the outer edge of the rims line up or slightly stick out the rear fender (Guess spacer or M3 offset.) However what kinda tires to not look so square, but round and makes it seems like the rims is so big the tire barely wrap on it? 10" wide rims on 265/35/19?

That'll work, but i'd suggest you go with a 265/30/19. A 35 series in that size is a odd sized tire and not many brands make it, so you pay much more. Falken FK452's and Toyo Proxes T1-R's have a slightly rounder sidewall that gives you that stretched look.

I'm running a 19x10 et 33 rear on a 275-30 tire and thats pretty much the max you are gonna get to fit on an e92 without fender rolling. The setup sits nice and flush, but not really stretched at all. Heres a pic:

The main thing you want to consider is offset and wheel width. Most go with a 9.5 ET30-35 for the rear to make it flush with the fender. A 265 rear tire will fill it out but I have seen people do 275 rears with a fender roll for that extra aggressive look.

I would recommend taking a look at the Vendor Wheel/Tire section. There are a handful of different style wheels, finishes, and tire packages to choose from.

If you are looking for a flush rear fitment without the need of fender rolling at stock height, 9.5 +30-33 and 10" +38 with 265's gets the job done. If you would like the wheels to poke a bit, then you can always adjust accordingly with a high quality hub centric spacer.

+1 Exactly on the money here.

Just keep looking for the style of wheel you want in the vendor section
