Question Will 19x8.75 fit in the front? Been getting mixed answers, need some help!

Hey, everyone:

So like the title says..I'm wanting to buy some wheels that have measurements of 19x8.75 and I've been searching around the forum but have been getting mixed answers as to if it'll fit in the front or not. The tire "experts" at 1010 say they may rub but I wanted to get some opinions on here! They have a 35mm offset and I plan on having 225/35/19 in the front and 255/30/19 in the rears.

It'll be going on a LCI E90 335i with sport package. If I buy these wheels will I have to modify in order to get them to work? Spacers? A roll?

Hoping to put in the order today, so some quick responses would be much appreciated!

That's a weird size and sounds like XXR wheels? Anyway it will fit just fine. Here is 18 inch example at pre-lci e90. This has wider rear tho http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...26&postcount=1 Front is fine without modifications. Rear shouldn't need fender roll either. As far as using spacers at rear i recommend installing wheels first and then see if it in your opinion needs them.

Thanks for your quick reply! Yes, they are definitely an odd size and yes they are XXR wheels. That extra 1/4 of an inch just makes it more complicated haha.

Think about them as 9 wide wheels. Since that fits fine there is no reason why little bit narrower wouldn't.
