VMR Fitment Question
Car:2008 335xi
Wheels: 19" VMR V710 Front: 19 x 9.5 +33 Rear: 19 x 10 +25 Tires: Falken FK452 Front: 225/35/19 Rear:245/35/19 Can this fit the xi model 335? I really do not mind rolling fenders if need be. Also, how much room do you think this setup would allow for drop? If anyone has pictures of this setup on a xi, I would love to see! Thanks

Why is that? wouldn't it allow me to stretch them some so I could sit lower with coilovers? or the xi not capable of dropping low enough to tuck them in the fender?
thanks

What size would you recommend for an aggressive fitment?

You'll need to have a decent fender roll/pull in order for that to fit properly. I'd recommend a 19x8.5 +35, 19x10 +38 then space it out accordingly if it's not aggressive enough for your taste.

You need to compare your front and rear wheel/tire sizes with each other, not against stock, because the xi needs all 4 wheels to have about the same rolling diameter.

Although it was already mentioned, you need to need to be aware that the 19x10 ET25 is an aggressive fitment for your car. You'll need to roll your rear fenders to avoid rubbing issues. As VMR mentioned, the recommended setup is the 19x10 ET38 for a direct fit. As per the tire size, I would recommend that you go with the 235/35/19 up front and the 265/30/19 in the rear.

Front: 19 x 9.5 +33
Rear: 19 x 10 +25 This is no problem... 225/35 and 255/30 or 235/35 and 265/30 with a fender roll... done.

Assuming you are accurate, what tire size would you ultimately recommend?

225 on 9.5" is stretched and not necessary with et33.. so go with 235/265 if you don't plan on using spacers or slamming it
