Forge star f14 fitment help

Hey everyone, i'm looking to purchase some Forge Star F14s for my 2007 E92 328i. Being located in Canada it's very expensive for us to ship over F14s but I was lucky enough to come across a used pair locally. The specs are as following:

19x9 ET35 and 19x10 ET28

wrapped in front: 235/35/19 Falkens

wrapped in rear: 265/30/19 Michelin Super Sports

He had it on his old 335i and used no spacers and was running KW coilovers which I plan to do as well. Can someone shine some light on this fitment and or their fitment with these wheels in 19' staggered set up like mine. I'm confident it will fit no problem as the seller is a genuine person, just wanted to get more insight before making the purchase.

Thanks in advance

E92 and I’m running 9”and 10” on Kwv2s. Im on Michelin ps4s(275/30/19)in rear..
I have run +28 ( with 12 mm spacers. And it would rub with people in the car. I ran extra camber and a light roll. Still rub a little.
I went down to 10mm spacers making it +30 in rear. No rubbing , but still very close and flush.
The 265 might give you enough space but it’ll be close. Also how low you decide to go will be another factor.

As far as the front you’ll have no issues and probably want to throw on some 3-5mm spacers to bring the fronts out to match the rears.

Thank you so much, I will for sure PM you once I get the wheels. Forgestar was telling me that 9.5 front and 11 in the back is the most popular fitment they offer and clearly based on the forums thats what most ppl are running but its too aggressive for 1) daily driving in Toronto and 2) for the occasional passengers in the back (rarely but still) With coilovers I'll get that nice flush look and im also thinking of going for KWs.

Sorry to hijack man. E92 looks great. Do you mind sharing the color code on those wheels?

The fitment that they are referring too is very aggressive, the minimum 9.5 is in order to be able to run the Super Deep Concave up front and offset around +23. Which will require camber plates for added negative camber. The rear will require a roll and negative camber too. There’s definitely some work to be done to achieve a nice Low stance with SDC f14s all around( if not it’ll rub or look like a roller skate, compared to your originally mentioned setup.

There’s actually two different Oem 437s that both have the black.
One has a very light silver on the faces with black.. And the other one has the darker silver Faces with black. Obviously these are the darker ones.
