Tire Size and Offset E90 330i F-19x8.5 R-19x9.5

I have E90 330i sport package and need help with offset.
I know the style of rims and tires I what so just need the offset. I will be changing to HR race spring in near future as well so I what something that will work for that set up. I want the rims pushed out further than current stock set up. I do take the car to track so I definetly dont want rubbing.

Front 19x8.5 w/ 245/35/19 BFG KDW
Rear 19x9.5 w/ 275/30/19 BFG KDW


OFFSET?

if you want no rubbing,

try to find front and rear offsets between 35-38, especially on the rears...

with a 265 rear tire, you can go to a lower offset, not lower than 30 though since you plan on running on H&R Race

You WILL rub at the back with a 20 offset.

19x9.5 ET 20 thats going to rub, thats not a recommended size we would make on a wheel. The tire sizes are recommended however, for the track you may want to consider some 18's.

20 will rub for sure on the rear, especially if you lower your car.....

if you want to run a 265 rear tire, try to get at least a rear offset of 30

Attn: Ron

For my 19x8.5 front & 19x9.5 rear, could I use 225/35/19 front tire & 265/30/19 rear tire ?



When I install them, should I tell them what offset I prefer or they have a standard?
