Front looks good. That rear fitment is a pretty low offset for a non M car. It should fit with a 265/30R19 but it will be pretty close to the fender so some fender modification may be needed. I've seen some get away with aggressive fitments like this with no problem but we have also had reports of rubbing with them.

Try between 35 and 40 psi. I like around 40.

Earlier I wanted to go with the classy look with DPE but I have re-routed to a more aggressive sports look with lighter wheels

We recommend whatever the user manual says. I believe it should be 36psi for the fronts and 38psi for the rears.

even tho the wheels have been changed? it is 35 / 42 for the 18 " wheels with 225/40 and 255/30 tires that came with my car..
however if you get the bmw 19" wheels, recommended is 39/46 with tires 225/35 and 255/30 Ill go with 39 / 46 then since my wheels are 19" with tires 235/35 and 265/30?= (?)

Yes, we recommend the OE specs even though the wheels have been changed.
