Getting new wheels soon.

hey guys, summer is right there and im buying a new set of rims for my e92.
I am getting VMR VB3s in matteblack. Gotta wait till end of this month.
the only thing im not sure is should i get 19*9.5 front or 19*8.5 front? my rears will be 19*10"s.
the main reason i want to run 9.5 front is the extra concave! just love them!

im on stock sport shocks right now and planning to install kw V2 later this year.

will i have rub on front? i heard that the front fenders cannot be rolled.
i want to run ?? F and 275/30 R hankook V12 tires.

I would go 8.5" front to avoid rubbing issues...you'll need a fender roll in the rear to accomodate 275 tires with a 10" rear when dropped

the 19x9.5 might rub depending on tire choice up front.

the 19x10 will rub with an et25 in the rear, you will need a fender roll

8.5 +40 front and 10 +38 rear is recommended with a 235/265 tire size. This is a direct bolt-on fitment and will not require any kind of work for stock/sport height.

9.5" +33's can fit up front but will require a generous amount of camber to clear the outside fender.
