19x9.5/10.5 (+20, +22) a bad idea?
Wheels I'm interested in come in only those offsets and it seems like it may be too much trouble.
Opinions needed. |

I'm guessing you saw that blue E92 on Varrstoens?
10.5et22 is going to need a lot of fender work and camber. Unsure about front

Yeah after some research I've decided against it. Just not worth all the hassle in the end for some TE replicas. |

9.5 et.33 up front 10 et 38 in the rear Then adding spacers. Quote:
I originally thought you were asking which tires you'd need for your wheels to fit without rubbing but that's clearly not the case. |

I don't think A LOT of fender work needs to be done. My friend is running 19x10.5 et22 with some camber and a little bit of stretch. He also has a light roll for the fenders.

I can't imagine any rubbing at stock height.

How do you have zero rub? I have a 265/30/19 on OEM 359 (19x10et25) with -1.55 rear camber, lightly lowered (nowhere close to slammed, maybe 10mm lower), rolled rear fenders, and I still lightly rub on high compression corners and over bumps on the corner where the bumper and fender meet...gets worse with 1 passenger, and rear passengers...forget it. Dremel down that part of the inner fender lip?

That's a tough one, stretched tire is necessary since E92's have plastic front fenders

If you look at the blue E92 on Varrstoen TE reps, he is running 19x10.5et22 with shaving, cutting, AND pulling and he still rubs. Quote:

Thanks for the help, I imagine that the 0.5" is helping...what brand tire? My car only rubs left side when I'm driving aggressively and taking high compression corners, going in and out of steep driveways, and large bumps, though anyone else in the car is pretty bad. The -1.8 is what he says is needed to clear? Or what he believes static camber is? I have adjustable upper links for the super adjustable camber...I was thinking of going to 1.7 or 1.8 to try and solve it TBH...

Tee told me -1.8 is the natural camber on lowered cars. Since you're only 10mm lower than stock, you're probably still @ stock specs. I barely clear with my stock camber, so you I think you need more camber and more low.
