If you however stretch a tire it does as now the sidewalls rub.
So if my front is 245 on 18x8.5 and 275 on a 18x9.5 what would the ideal offset be?

I would go 30 front, 35 rear. My buddy has 5 more front and 3 more rear but I don't think you need that much.

I had 235/35-19 on 19x8.5 et30 front and 275/30-19 on 19x9.5 et35 and it was perfect. I was lowered 1/2" rear, 1" front past sport suspension ride height with stock chambers and m3 front control arms.

E92 LCI the rears wil be tight with a 35et from what I've heard. LCI has slightly less room. May require a roll or camber. Or get et38 maybe. Size wise for the tires they work as outer diameter is close enough for xi cars.
Wheels 19x8.5 et30 front with 235/35-19
19x9.5 et35-38 With 275/30-19

Yes. Do you want 18 or 19, or something else?

You ask a lot of questions dude. Given your responses in this thread so far I would highly recommend the 18's. You don't seem to know a lot about wheel/tire setups and 19's are just really unnecessary for Pennsylvania roads.

Agreed. PA is pothole country. Go 18s.

Still looking for Rims?

Have staggered set of M 220 19" rims available for sale if you are still deciding. In my research I have seen a number of 335xi's with these wheels. With xDrive you would need to go with 235/35/19 front and 265/30/19 rear.

PM if interested and we can discuss details.
