Pre LCI 19x9 et30 19x10 et30

Hi guys,

I am looking at the possibility to run the above on a '08 325 with motorsport (sport suspension). How aggressive is this and with Fender roll to the rear am I going to have issues with passengers? The rear effectively works out to be a 9.5 et22 like the vb3s.

I was looking a VB3s but their offsets and the possibility of running spacers means these are a no go without being too conservative or too aggressive for what I am after.

I will look to run FK452s 235/35s in the front and 265/30s in the rear.

Am I going to rub with or without load in the back with a fender roll?

I have done so much searching in this and don't think I have found anyone running this setup... So input would be appreciated.

Also photos of similar setups and 265 452s on a 10" rim would be awesome.

Thanks all

You'll be fine with those specs, shouldn't be too close especially with a slight roll.

what about clearance to the strut on the inside face? This isn't going to be an issue?

Any idea on the clearance between hub face and strut?

I'm not sure on BMW struts as they're wider than coilovers but my 9.5 et27 is just missing the inside on the front, and my 11 et35 is basically touching the arch liner.

You are right to consider the inner clearance on the front though. Might be worth pulling a wheel off and measuring hub face to strut (most likely spring seat)

19x9" ET30 with 235/35-19 tires will be a direct fit up front without any inner clearance issues with the OEM suspension.
