18x8.5 et40 with 245/40/18 on an E90 pre-LCI?

Hello All!

Just purchased an e90 pre-LCI not too long ago so still fairly new to this.

Found a set of wheels/tires with the specs below. Is anyone running this particular fitment? It'd be great to see some pictures.

18x8.5 et40 with 245/40/18

If these don't work out, what's the most aggressive square set-up you've seen on stock suspension? Haven't decided if I want to get coilovers/springs yet.

However, would the 18x9 et30 discussed compared to the 18x8.5 et40 I'm looking at make a difference?

The half-inch would mean that the wheel is smaller on both sides by 12.7 mm where the additional 10mm in the offset would shift the wheel inwards, correct? That'd still cause rubbing?
