Fitment advice for E90 LCI

I'm planning on purchasing a new set of wheels, but can't decide on which fitment to go with. I have a 2011 E90 xDrive and it will be slightly lowered on KW V1. Not planning to slam it to the ground and I am not trying to run anything more than -2 camber. I've decided on the wheel tire sizes but I'm not sure about the offsets:


Front: 18x8.5 ET20 or ET35
Tire size will be 225/40/18

Rear: 18x9.5 ET33 or ET45
Tire size will be 255/35/18

I understand the ET20 front/ET33 rear combo will be about 15mm more aggressive than the ET35/45 but I also know that once the car is lowered the wheels will tuck in a bit. I am aware that I can always be safe, order the ET35/45 offsets, and use spacers if necessary, but I'd like to not have to use spacers if I don't have to. I just don't want to end up rubbing and running into other problems.

Thanks for the feedback!
