Some people say yes, and some say no. I know the recommended tire size is 265/30/19 for these wheels. But if I was to use 255/30/19 or 245/30/19 would that allow these rears to fit my car without rubbing issues? I am also lowered on KW V1 coilovers. Ive called a few places in my area for fender rolling and it doesnt seem anyone is willing to roll my fenders. Plus I hear the paint can easily be cracked. So Im trying to see if someone can give me a concrete yes or no answer to let me know if these rears will work on my car. Any help would be appreciated.
Just buy those. I have 9.5 et22 rear. No rubbing, but i have 235 tyre. Im quite sure you can use 255/30/19 without problems. I can fit my fingers between my fender and tyre.
Im lowered with hr sport.

So your pretty confident I can get these wheels to fit in the rear? Also, its possible to stretch 235s on a 9.5 inch wheel? At least you dont have to worry about rubbing lol Do you think Id just be safer using a 245/30/19 rear tire?

Thank you for the pics, your car looks great. I love the fitment and stance. Im hoping the wheels work out for me. I think my car might be a bit lower, but hopefully that doesnt cause a major issue.

E90 LCI on AG-M359 19's / ST Coilovers - Aggressive offset

Well I finally had the time on my hands to slap the AG wheels on and tinker with the drop and this seemed like the most suitable thread to post it on.

This is my E90 on ST Coil Overs and AG M359’s 19’s. Down Pipes are in as well. More pics coming.

F=19x9 ET 35 and R=19X10 ET25.
Tires Hankook v12 - 235/35/19 - 265/30/19, respectively.

The coils I bought from Alan at **********s and the wheels and tires from Brad at Bavarianx, (definitely worth the wait). All very good peep’s to work with.

The rear fenders were rolled, Not a chance in hell you can use that offset and not have the rear’s rub. Richard from USA Motorsports in San Antonio, TX did this for me. Very nice guy..., should you need rolling and live in the vicinity, give him a call at 210-525-8468. Good price to.









The rears still rub a little when I hit a deep slump or turn aggressively causing a lot of roll. For the most part they behave. The rear passenger coil doesn’t seem to be picking up as much as the left. I wonder if the springs took a crap or the dampers. Any ideas on what could be going on with my right rear coil? I had to compress it almost ½” more than the Left coil and still does not lift the RR that high.….. What a PITA..

They are brand new, btw..

Other than that, I get a lot of compliments about the wheels and drop. I’m going to put some spacer in the front to even out the look. Don’t know if I should go with 5.00mm or 7.00mm.

Next on the list:

FMIC, Injen DC Intake, Freeflow Catback and finally I’ll drive up to Austin and pay COBB Tuning a visit. We’ll see how that goes.

Thanks, Did you adjust the camber some to stop the occasional rubbing or learned to live with it..?

Oh, your going to rub some. Here are some shots of the rears L/R and the gap I have to run with the coilovers. I don't have any idea how Eichbach's will sit. I still when I hit hard dips or corner hard. Don't know what the camber is right now. It's still factory, I'll know once I have it aligned at the stealer.. What did you clip on the inside of the fender?

Wow thanks so thats et25? Good pics! Gives me an idea... The eibachs will sit a little higher.. A little bit of camber should fix yours no problem but ya that looks real flush..

My h&r would tuck my 313 wheels.. Looks gross.. Atlease u got some wheel gap haha

ET25 alright. I need to get the car aligned. Do you know if the stealer ship do the negative on it for me, or would they avoid it due to warranty issues?

Hey folks, I'm about to have a set of wheels built for an e91. I'm planning 19x8.5 with 235/35 all around, -1 camber, 1.5" drop. For offset I'm planning ET29 up front and ET19 in the rear. I didn't see any cars in this thread with those specs. Any thoughts?
