Any reason that not to do an 18"/19" stagger

I know it will give the car a different look, but Corvette and other cars use this arrangement,

I think he is talking about a 18" wheel in the front and a 19" in the rear?

I think he may have to roll his fenders if he wants to run 18" wide in the front and 19" wide in the rear.

.... no he wants an 18" wheel in front and 19" in the back.

i dont think there would be a problem, as long as rolling diameter is correct. i would only do this on an e92 though. the e90 proportions wouldnt look good with this kind of stagger.

+1. As long as it's done correctly you shouldn't have any issues.
