Anybody running 19" AG M359 on E90 LCI w/ springs?

Like the title says, I have a 2011 E90 335i M-Sport with a set of Avant Garde M359 wheels.

Specs are:
F: 19x9 ET35 (235/35/19 tire)
R: 19x10 ET38 (265/30/19 tire)

I am considering dropping the car on some H&R Sport Springs, so I wanted to ask others running this setup what it's like?

This is a very popular E90 setup from what I have found searching, but I just wanted to get more information.

Is there any rubbing or clearance issues? They are Hancook tires by the way, if that matters. I just really want to make sure I will be okay before I go ahead and put the car on the springs. If I am going to need to have my fenders rolled, then I would rather do that first in anticipation of these problems since I absolutely can't stand rubbing.

Thanks!

I did, but it was difficult to find anybody specifically running this exact setup on this trim car, with the same size tires, while also including pictures.

I was simply trying to make a thread that could be a central location for information regarding this specific situation, so that the next person wondering the same thing could use it at a resource.

Sorry to have been so offensive to you!

I have those same wheel specs and same tire size on my car now and they fit fine no rubbing. I also have 5 mm spacers front and rear and it looks good. You should have no issues. Go ahead and get them. So many people run those exact specs. You may need a slight roll since LCI hubs are 8mm further out than pre lci cars.

That's good to hear... And I assume your even lower than sport springs since you're on coils, which leads me to believe that I will have absolutely no problems...
