Ok currently in the tire shop getting 265 pss on my 2011 335D the mech came out and told me that my tire will rub on the inside frame without a spacer in there I find that hard to believe because I have a good bit of room does anyone know if I'll need a spacer or not I'm running pss 265/30/19 on a 19x9.5 inch rim

What is the offset on your rear wheels? If you're running a 9.5" wide rim a 265 should not be an issue and neither should the inside fender wall. For reference, I run a 19x9.5 ET33 and I'm lowered, but I have no rubbing issues whatsoever even with 4 people and luggage in the car. However, MPSS are also known to run a little bit wider than most tires so a 255 in MPSS might be a better move.
