Help with wheel size and springs

Hi

I have been looking for a set of new wheels for my 335 Touring e91 2007.

One wheel really caught my eye but will it fit,

20 inch
8.5 FRONT ET 35 AND 10 REAR ET42

which tire size should I look for?

I also want to lower my car so that it dosent look like a truck on 20 inters.

My car has m-sport chassi on it so how much can I lower it with just new lowering springs without rubbing the tires?

Please help me out

I don't know much about fitting 20 inch wheels, but member Remmib had specs like 20x8.5 ~et33 and 20x10 ~et38 with 285/25/20 lowered on coilovers and it rubbed a little from rear. He rolled the rear to fix that.

I don't know the front tyre size, but i'm sure you can find it somewhere in his threads. Or ask him directly.

Garage List
2007 e92  [7.00]
recommended tire sizes for those specs are 245/30/20 and 285/25/20.

On my volks I ran 245/30/20 20x8.5 (+29) 275/30/20 20x10.5(+37) and I was KSport Coils. (http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=797694)

I also was running 225/30/20 on 20x9 (+30 this is w/ +5mm spacer) / 255/30/20 on 20x10.5 (+30 this is with a +12mm spacer) on H&R Race
