19x8.5 / 19x9.5 perfect offsets for flush fenders

Christopher John · 04-20-2017, 12:07 PM

In consideration of 255 front and 275 rears. Buying some wheels that I can customize the offset. I don't mind rolling the rears a little to achieve the perfect stance. Pics with input would be great!

Thank you.

My guess is 32 front and 30 rear... if anyone thinks better please help.

Somewhere around 30 front and 25 rear, adjusting for the amount of camber/arch work you want to do.

I had 27/20 on 225/255 and they still had space before being properly flush. If you wanted to get the rear arch lip completely flat you could go for maybe 20 or lower, but with the standard return I reckon right around 25 will be bang on with those tyres.

Hi guys.My 313 alloys are Kerbed and messed up so I've been offered some new ones cheap.But they are 19 inch and 8.5 wide fronts and 9.5 rears.Think the offset on them is 35.Will these fit model ok anyone know.The rims I have on now are 19 inch,8 wide and 9 wide.Offset on these are all 35.
Worried as they are slightly wider they may rub? My car is a 2008 325d msport.
Any help be great thx!

Just ordered tires. About to pull the trigger.

Front 30
Rear 25

Anyone else agree with this? Thank you?

Doesn't it matter if it's lci vs pre-lci?

Mine is 2012. So LCI... Didn't know it mattered, thanks.

Duck360198 · 08-03-2017, 09:49 PM

I always thought that pre-lci allowed for much more aggressive offsets, especially in the rear compared to lci. Something like a 12mm offset difference at the rear so a 22mm offset on a pre would be equivalent to a 34mm on lci.

I may be wrong on those exact numbers but I thought it was something along those lines. You may just want to double check before you make a purchase.

You're right. So I think I want to go:

Rear 33-35
Front 30

Pre-lci does allow for more aggressive offsets in the rear. 8mm more to be exact.

with a 19x10 et22 will need a roll a 19x 9.5 i dont think will need a roll but maybe very mild. I've ran 19x10 et 22 with a roll and 19x11 et 25 shaved and currently run 18x12 et 44 with 305 35 18 but i am a e90 prelci but i think the et should be the same it's the width of the rim that you can fit back there that will be different with an LCI, i believe.

Fundguy1 · 08-10-2017, 07:12 AM

It matters first
If it's prelci or lci
Second
Is it e90 or e92/93
Third
Any suspension mods?
Forth
What camber do you plan to use?

I don't see all of these answered by the op and with such an aggressive fit unless all the questions are answered exactly right he will gave issues.

Since you have an lci, rear is more narrow. You need a precise fit to fit these, let alone be flush. If it's an e92, modified, etc, you will have additional issues

You're an authentic genius. Thanks for posting.

Fundguy1 · 08-12-2017, 12:09 AM

Hmmm. Was just trying to be specific. Each of those questions matters. If it's an lci e92/93 With stock suspension, stock camber, the front 255 will not fit no matter what you do. 275 rears will fit but you need a 38-40 et. Normally, 265 is max rear on lci e92/93 and 245 et 30 front. If it's e90 there's more room front but not sure rear. Et 32 front will probably fit a 255. Hope this helps.
