What Size spacer with new wheels..

So I'm picking up some wheels this weekend 19x8 19x9 225/35/19 and 255/30/19 for my 11' x drive E92 and I want some spacers. My question would be what size can i get with out having the wheel rub. and also any suggestion on brand and what to look for when buy spacers..

Thanks in advance

You haven't said the offset.
You will also need new lug bolts.

can do 12mm Front and 15mm Rear without rubbing, especially if your on stock height + x drive. And the reason why you need new bolts is because your current ones will be too short.

you need longer ones due to spacers, buy spacers and bolts as a kit. you need at least 7 full rotations of thread engagement generally.

Hey I'm looking at getting the VRSF spacers but on my initial post I was going to the new wheels which didn't work out since winter is here and they were 19" on summer tires. Now, I'm keeping my stock wheels and want to put some spacers on. This are the measurements, Star Spoke (Style 339) 17 x 8.0 light alloy wheels, 225/45/17. I don't know the offset but wheel are stock, they came with the car. Any idea on what spacer I can put on ?
