E92 on Volk TE-37s 285 tire (pics)

Before purchasing these wheels and tires every thread I looked at claimed this would not fit, turns out thats not necessarily true.

Set Up:
Volk TE-37s 18x9.5 +25 (w/ spacer) 18x10.5 +25
Tires 245/35/18 285/30/18

this set up is on stock rear camber -2.6 front and rear (BC Racing camber plates) rear fenders are rolled front is stock untouched.

I get light rubbing on the sidewalls going up inclines in the rear but no rubbing at all driving around. I daily this car 80 hwy miles everyday with no problem. Hope this helps for anyone looking to run an aggressive set up on a 328/335i coupe

Im on BC Racing coil overs set to max stiff

Your running incorrect tire size with a diameter that's too small. Your speedo must read a good amount too fast. A 245/40 in the front. and a 275/35 or a 285/35 for the rear would be much more ideal. That's why they don't fill up the wheel well very good. But I'm surprised the rear was able to fit with only a roll.

A 245/40 front is too beefy for a 328i

Definitely surprised you're able to run a 285 in the rear with just a roll with minimal rubbing. I have almost the same wheel specs as you and running 265's in the rear and I was rubbing quite a lot...like almost every turn I would rub. I just recently shaved the rear fenders and about 90% of the rubbing went away -- I still rub on some bumps and dips. You must not be able to have passengers either lol.

I've never had anyone in the back seat but remember I have 16k rear coils too
