My car is a 2009 e90...What offset do i run on 8x19 and 9x19 rims for them to be pretty flush with the fender. Im trying to avoid using spacers..

With or without fender roll adn what tyre sizes you want to use?

Thanks for the response! Without fender roll, i dont plan on lowering but i just want them to look nice. and no crazy stretched tires just normal 225 40 up front and maybe 265 40 back?

Tyre sizes are wrong for 19 inch wheels. 225/35/19 and 255/30/19 are the correct size. 265 is too wide for 9 wide. For those widths 19x8 et25-20 and 19x9 et30-25.

I can't find example, since those widths aren't too common, but here is one with 8.5 and 9.5 setup http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...1&postcount=20, if you want to do something similar it would be 19x8 et22 and 19x9 et29.

Are you going with custom offset? Since i don't think you can easily find those sizes.

I just think you would be better to look, because these are more common sizes
19x8.5 et 35-30 with 235/35/19 front
19x9.5 et40-35 with 265/30/19 or
19x10 et38-43 with 265/30/19 to rear.

With those et30-35 front and et35 rear would be good for lci and fitment wise it looks like this http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...08&postcount=2

Also if you want you can fit 19x9 front and 19x10 rear without fender work.

Might as well do 9.5 and 11 and shave the rears if you are going with a custom fitment.

True that, but he doesn't want fender work/ stretched tyres or want to lower the car, so that setup wouldn't look that good.

True, but now is the time to consider it. It's worth the effort to go a little more aggressive.
