Maybe try using a spacer that's a couple MM less, something like 7mm...

What kind of tires are you running? Different companies have different sidewall width, even though they're the same number. ie Toyo's 265 is slimmer than say, Kumho.

19x9.5 with up to 25 offset should not rub on the rear of a lowered E90 at all. Anything more aggressive than that, you will need to roll fenders.

Im very suprised you are rubbing with that set up. Is it with passengers loaded in rear?

with total of 5 ppl in my car, i am rubbing seriously.
if only me, minor rubbing i guess.

no idea why this happening with my set up.

Running a smaller spacer will cure the problem, unless your willing to roll your fenders.

Agreed... Smaller spacer will fix the problem. Fender rolling will also solve the problem as well... It could be the alignment, so you might want to check how many degrees of camber you might be running, and add a bit to it (negative camber).

If you want to run a smaller spacer, you can check them Here

but i have came and asked before, running a 10mm spacer shouldn't be a problem....

will it make a difference of running the camber from -1.7 to -2.1?

That sucks...

CH's - I remember the other thread. Everything Ive read on here would indicate that a 19x9.5 wheel/265 tire/+30 offset wont rub. Maybe just lose the spacers altogether?
