Avant-garde M359

Hey guys,I am trying to find a great tire setup for my e90.

I bought a pair of Avant Garde M359 wheels and I have a 2008 bmw 335xi with sport suspension. I have attached a photo of her with stock wheels.

I want as much sidewall as possible but don't want too rub. NY roads are the worst and I just got these babies powdercoated.
I am awd so it would have to be a square setup unless I went with X delete.

ET 35
19x9

I was thinking
Square setup
235/35-19?
would that be a good idea?

Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated and if anyone has pictures of 19s with a square setup or stock sport suspension please post some photos!

Thanks!

235 tire is going to have a slightly stretched look on a 9” wheel.

I would suggest to run a 245 tire on a 9” wheel. That’s what I changed to after my 235 were done.

Not sure how that would sit. I don’t want to give you wrong info.

By the way, those wheels you got are not Avant Garde M359.

Well my AG M359's don't have these grooves and it doesn't seem that they changed the design on their site either.

Also, is there a slot for the m decals on your wheels?

My AV 359M look slightly different as well.

Also, it is possible to do a staggered setup with xDrive. Mine came with a staggered setup from factory as part of the M-Sport package. Just need to make sure the rolling diameter is the same front to back.

Lastly, no such thing as sport suspension on xDrive. We all got stuck with base suspension from factory, regardless of what packages are equipped on the car.

Wheels still look nice and will compliment the car.

Would be good if you could track down the brand in case you need a replacement like I did when I drove over a rock.
