Tire pros! I need help!!!!

Hey guys, I'm about to order my tires for my wheels.. My question for you is.. Should I run a 245/30/20 or 235/30/20? Front wheels are: 20x8.5 et +30..
It's an e92 coupe lowered on H&R sport.. Trying not to rub... Btw, tires are Hankook v12 ventus..

Thanks in advance,

Chris

ET30 is kinda aggresive with 20" so 245/30 might rub, depending how low your car is.

I've got 235/30 Falken tires, and with the 10mm spacers I've got now, I believe my offset is approx ET33-34. I now have a slight rub (where the fender meets the front bumper) in big bumps, but I guess mine is lower than yours and I don't know if the e92 is exactly like the e90.
