Changing from 19" to 18" staggered setup for E92

I am planning to change my 19" staggered setup to 18" staggered on my e92 w/ sport package. I'm looking at doing 18x8.5 fronts and 18x9.5 rears. I was wondering what is the optimal tire sizes that I can use for this. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Look up Apex's wheel and tire fitment guide for the e9x non-m. Lots of good reference info for widths, offsets, tire sizes, required adjustments (spacers, fender rolling), etc.

I run 225/40/18s up front and 255/35/18 on rear - looks pretty nice if you ask me.
