Avant Garde M359

Hey,

I am purchasing my AG M359 19" this weekend and was wondering if my fitment (19x8.5 in the front (235/35/19) and 19x9.5 in the rear (265/30/19 ) is the most aggressive it can be without rolling my fenders and with minimal rubbing? Would i be able to have 275's in the back?

I have a 2009 335i sedan with no sports package...

Kind regards,
Teddy

They don't offer 8.5, 9.5 widths. Only 9 and 10" widths, I just ordered mine in 19x9 ET35 and 19x10 ET38.

^That's the standard fitment for 335 cars. I'm planning to run Michelin A/S 3's in 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 with my wheels but I know the acceptable offsets for sedans are different since I think there is a track difference between pre-lci and lci sedans, something like 10mm or so. However, with not having a sport package, I think you'll be fine with a 265 or 275 tire with no rubbing, maybe a vendor can back that up?

For the record, my buddy is running a 19x10 Apex EC-7 wheel on his e90 with a 285 tire and he says there's no rubbing.

^^ Correct. These are only available in 19x9 and 19x10. You can run a 275 in the back no problem.

I agree to that. I am running M359 235 35R19 F and 275 30R19 R with no rubbing issues.

Does you buddy have any photos of his car with the 19" Apex on the forums?

Whoops. Misspoke. It's an 18" wheel and I don't know if he has pics on the forum or not
