I recall the E92 fenders are plastic and the E90 fenders are metal..
If you hit a bump hard enough your able to blow up the e92 fender..

[tofu-]

that's odd.. did they send you the right offsets for the front? i thought a lot of people ran these wheels with that tire size combo

[_shim]

wow, that repair job looks pretty good.. what exactly did you do?

[khaye1]

those tires look very square from the pix...they look like the sidewall protrude a lot. I'm running the same exact size for the front and my et35 have more than enough clearance. They're actually on the conservative side. I never had any rubbing issues and I'm dropped on h&r sports.

Def needed a step by step diy with pics

[hipnotic]

yikes

Are you positive those front wheels are ET35? They look pretty damn flush with the body of the car. I've seen guys run much lower ET's up front without any issues. I'm running ET23 with my spacer on the same width wheel/tire and i never rub even on coilover height.

[catch]

i feel like maybe those are rears on the front? Im running a 8.5 up front with an et 23 with a 235/35/19 and barely rub

Damn dude, that sucks. I would have cried if I saw that! I would definately make sure the 9.5 wasnt mounted on the front tires...that would be crazy, it is possible, and maybe you can get the shop to pay for the fender?????

[e92stance]

looking at the pics closer, I have 2 observations:

1.) That wheel looks like its sitting pretty flush, I bet they put the wrong tires on the wheels maybe. We need a comparison shot of the front and rear at eye level. The wheels are a little concave right? You should be able to tell right away

2.) Maybe the fender tried to commit suicide because you put those horrible m-style side marker things on there! lol jk, but ewww

[kmoto]

damn man. that sucks, sorry to hear.

Glad you were able to find the piece, I know the feeling about deciding whether to stop and pick it up. I installed my aero lip one night and on the way to work the next morning hit some metal filter that fell off some dude's truck. Shattered the lip . The paint shop laughed at me when I handed them the envelope with all the little pieces. lol.

But in regards to your wheel/tire size and offset. I'm on H&R Sports, 19 x 8.5 et 35, 235/35/19 w/ 12mm spacer and only slightly rub when making full turns..

[Gavin@MMW]

The front of your car looks very flush, if that was a 235/35/19 on a 19x9.5 it would show some stretch, which yours isnt. it looks very beefy for a 235/35

have you actually checked everything yourself?

There is always the possibility that you were airborn for a second and the car went to full compression when it came down and since you have a plastic fender on the e92, the wider Pzero cause it to flex, and but strain on the mount between the bumper and fender and snapped under flex. Thats what it looks like to me.

how about a close up of your repair. to me, it looks like you slapped some glue on it and put it back where it goes.

you do know that not all tires are the same, right? generals

Then she bought them for me for my b-day. I had to install em but after i did I actually like em. maybe theyd look a little better to you if ya saw em clean but either way to each his own, haha.

LOL, didnt mean to add insult to injury! The m-sidemarkers arent too bad! But yeah measure the fronts in comparison to the rear, I would assume from the back of the wheel to the face....then compare. Maybe the tires are just beefy as hell. I run generals on my wheels, same offsets and never had issues. Tire "beefyness" (lol) does vary though....
