Rim and Tire Question

Just a quick quesion about rim size.

Ok lets say I use the following setup
front
19x8
offset: 34mm
backspacing" 5.86

back
19.95
offset: 34mm
backspacing: 6.61

I would plan on using that setup on a E90 sedan (no sports package) 328i. Would this setup work fine with my car? If so then how much of a gap would still be left between the tire and fender?

YES that set up would be just fine with your car with NO issues. The gap would be close to stock, so some spacers would fix that quick.

235/265 is a perfect combo for your setup. You shouldn't run into any problem at all.

Ok guys thanks for your help.. This is the setup I'm going to go with than. What about the spacers what size spacers should I get and don't spacers put strain on the axle?
