New Wheel Fitment HELP

Hello All,

I have a 2006 330i e90 sedan with the sport package on it. I am curious if these rims and tires I want to buy will rub or need spacers.

Rims I am about to buy (not staggerd)
Beyern
Mesh
19X8.5 5-120 15SM

Nitto
NT 555 Extreme Performance
225/35ZR-19 XL 88W

Current Wheels and tires on the car now
Type 162
(Front: 18x8 ET34 225/40 R18)

(Rear: 18x8.5 ET37 255/35 R18)


I've used a wheel calculate to determine the differences the new wheels and tires will make.

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=464

So the Beyern Mesh 19x8.5 30TC
2mm LESS clearance on the strut side, and the outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 10mm

Beyern Mesh 19x8.5 40TC
12mm LESS clearance on the strut side, and the outside edge of the wheel will extend to THE SAME point as the stock wheel

Which would fit better? If any at all

Go with ET30-35 in the front 8.5 and ET30-35 for 9.5" in the rear.

Thanks for the answer. I ended up picking up some 18x8.5 et 30 front and 18x9.5 et 30 in the rear. 225/40/18 front and 255/35/18 in the rear......what do you think?

Just wanted to update everyone to answer the question that I asked.
Yes, the fitment fits with no rubbing
18x8.5 Beyern Mesh Front on 225/40/18
18x9.5 Beyern Mesh Rear on 255/35/18
These wheels fit well on my 2006 330i with sport package.

Before





After with the 18in Beyern mesh
