Need help one wheel and offset fitment

Hey guys, I'm deciding if I should buy these set of wheels and was hoping any wheel experts can tell me if they will fit my car.

Vehicle: 2011 335d with M-Sport suspension (sedan)

Wheels looking into getting are sized..

Front: 19x8.5 +32 w/ 235/35/19
Rear: 19x10 +25 w/ 265/30/19

I'm concerned with the rear offset. I don't mind rolling my fenders slightly but if it requires an aggressive fender roll with an increase negative camber alignment which my local wheel guy states, it might be too much trouble. Let me know what ya'll insight on this size. Thanks in advance for the answers.

That fitment is like 19x10 et17 for a prelci. It's going to need a good roll and some camber. It would help if you went down to a 255 in the rear.

Wouldn't 255 be a huge stretch for 10 inch wheels? Either way, the set comes with tires already mounted so changing tires is not an option.

Those rears will rub for sure. Definitely need a roll and pull.

How extreme of a roll/pull is required? Also need to increase negative camber?

Will be really aggressive on your LCI. Will require a fender roll and/or pull. I'd recommend going with a smaller tire but since that's not an option, you'll need to do more body work / suspension work.

Good roll and slight pull...and negative camber SHOULD work for you. Max out the factory negative camber, that should give you at least -3 degrees. I had a 255 on a 10.5 wheel and it was good IMO. But to each there own. If you are stretching the front like the rear it will not look right. So if you are going to stretch the rear, stretch the front too.

Thanks for all the answers. I've decided to pass on the wheels. Seems to be a lot of trouble just to get them to fit. -3 camber would cause my tires to be replaced in no time.

nope you would be perfect fine with -3 camber...I'm running -3 and my tires wear normal. Just make sure toe and caster are set correctly. That is what eats up the tire.

To each their own. I had -2 on my previous vehicle and since the outside edges of the tires has less tread, it ate it up fairly fast.
