Varrstoen 19x9.5 +20 19x11 +25 on stock height

I'm currently on stock height for e92 w/ sports suspension and don't know if I want to lower it because of clearance issues on my driveway. I already scrape at stock height unless I go in at an angle.

Will the car look stupid with Varrstoen 19x9.5 +20 19x11 +25? I'm guessing there will be some rear fender rubbing and might need to get it rolled which is fine.. Thoughts?

IMO aftermarket wheels just don't look good without a drop.

Drop it and learn to come in at an angle. It's not a big deal.

haha well if you're driveway is that bad it's probably not a good idea. You can invest in one of those mats you place in front of your driveway to make it easier to get up.

Yeah I thought about that too but there's so many damn kids around my neighborhood and I think they'll fuck with it.. For the time being, I'll just have to find a set of 19's with a higher offset.. from the looks of it, I probably wont be able to go lower than et30 without rolling fenders. Still considering a slight drop with h&r springs or something along that line but I'm scared that my driveway is going to eat up my aerolip that I'm about to put on.

I had 18" VMR V710's on my E90 on sports suspension and that shit was sickkkkk. Barely any gap, and the offsets were crazy like et35 and et22. For some reason the e92 seems like it sits higher? Idk maybe its just my imagination. I'm going to get the aero lip painted and installed next week and going to see how much I scrape...

I went through this already with the same set of wheels....I ended up selling them cause the sizes and offsets were too crazy for me and I didn't want to go "low" either because of scraping issues.

But for this spring...I've learned that coilovers are needed, and so I bought some KWs

You should too, if you want to get the proper aggressive look

I was really debating it but I don't think his setup will work for me. Driveway is too steep and form the looks of it, I probably don't want to run these wheels on stock height...

Yeah ended up just keeping the car, I decided I'm not done having fun with it yet. Instead of getting another 335i, just going to stick it out and get an ///M later or Pcar hopefully.

But to keep me interested, I just ordered a couple things and should be getting them sometime this week

how much wider are you trying to get them? I'm really considering these and might go and test fit them onto my car.

I'm thinking 19's on sport suspension would still look better with 18's on sport suspension.. At least then the gap would be a little less... No?

I'm think 15mm in the rear and 15mm in the front basically another half inch all around! I had 18's look small as hell, 19's will be clean on sport suspension. You can get supreme power lowering perches that'll make it nicer and not tooooo low
