Hey guys I am super noob on offsets/wheel sizes.

Is having this offset (19x9.5 +20, 19x11 +25) bad for a 2012 335? Will it fit comfortably/no rubbing with a drop? Or is that ridiculous?

Should I stick with 19x8.5 et34 19x9.5 et20 and play it safe? I am confused O_O

Thanks

I wish to believe you but can you give me a background of why? I want to know the reasons so I have this knowledge like you do

[J3NGOe90]

im noob like u, but from what i've learned 265/30/19 is the max for our cars, anything higher than this u might need a fender job

Noobs shouldn't be giving advice. You're wrong.

Yes, you can fit those sizes. It's not the standard, conservative fitment, so be prepared to put a little effort into making it work. You'll need to roll your fenders depending on ride height and tire size.

For: 19x9.5 +20, 19x11 +25
You will need: 225/35 front and 245/35 or 255/30 rear
Front camber: -1.1 degrees max stock camber
Rear camber: -2.5 degrees minimum
Fender roll: Just do it

Do you really have a 2012 335?

Lol, just checking. By the way, you can't roll your front fenders, only shave (plastic). So keep that in mind.

so u r saying we can feet 19x11 in the back without stretching the tire? even with 19x10 ur tires will be stretched, and if you roll the fenders 19x11 still will be super stretched

What? 265 on 10" is not stretched. Rolling fenders has nothing to do with tire stretch. 11" can be done easily with 265-275.

Even the 19x9.5 +25 is going to need a 255 tire to work. (with most tires).

19x10 +25 with a 255 tire actually gives u more clearance than a 19x9.5 +25 wheel if the car isn't slammed.

Why? Because when the tire is stretched even a tiny bit it pushes the Tires shoulder down and away from the fender.

texxi, how are you? welcome to e90post where youll find many different opinions and yes possitive results, heres my take but remember we do wheels for the "mass" consumer. the BMW e90 in general all take a max of 19x8.5 fronts and 19x10 rears ( oops sorry the new 335 can do safely 19x9 fronts) this is a regular set up. now outside of that if you dont mind making a project and you want to stand out plus you dont mind doing work like camber and rolling fenders well the sky is the limit, ive seen everything from a max of 19x9.5 fronts and 19x11 rears.

People have done 10.5" front and 12.5" rear... why are forum sponsors so oblivious?

Thank you but yes I am talking in terms of NOT ROLLING/CUTTING FENDERS! I mean a good offset with like H&R Springs. Not going crazy here.

I'm a noob as well and I'm getting the same setup. 19x9.5 +22 in the front, and 19x11 +25 in the rear. Tires will be 245 40 19 in the front, and 255 40 19 in the rear. I plan on rolling my fenders, doing a camber of -3 in the rear, and of course I wanna drop my car. First question will this fit, secondly could i possibly go wider tires in the back and still drop it to sit flush, and third the place I'm getting the work done said that they have B&G lowering springs for a good price which I haven't heard much about, or should i go H&R's?

245 up front is too much; you will rub if you're lowered. Drop to 225-235.
Also you want 225-235/35 front and 255/30 rear. NOT 40 series sidewall ratios.
Don't waste your time with springs. Coilovers only.

I have a set of wheels with the same size and offsets and I'm going to be running a 245/35 and a 285/30... I was running those tire sizes on my old set of wheels with no issues at all and no fender work done but I'm sure things will be different with the wider wheels and more aggressive offsets. Wish me luck lol
