ET35 F and ET33 R is possibly the most popular set-up on this forum...a simple search will give you tons of results...

ET45 F and ET42 R? Those sound more like 1 series offsets. You'll definitely need at least 10 mm spacers in front and more in the rear..

Hello MassBimmer... I'm planning to go with stagered 19's (8.5 frt. ET35 & 9.5 rr. ET33) Would the best fit tire size be: 235/35R19 & 265/30R19? (I have an 06 e90 w/sport pkg.) Thanks!!

You could run 235/35/19F and 265/30/19R or go with a 275/30/19R if you wanted a little more tire in the back...both would work great

Thanks MassBimmer... I've decided to go with 265's in the rear.. Scheduled to be installed next Monday!

Iwantm3 · 04-29-2010, 02:08 AM

275 is fine ?

MassBimmer · 04-29-2010, 08:01 AM

275/30 is actually a better match for 235/35 fronts but many people don't run them because they're lowered and they need a little more stretch

piggelin · 05-04-2010, 03:03 AM

ok, so this is how my car looks now.

8.5x19et42
9.5x19et45

piggelin · 05-04-2010, 03:03 AM

Is that without spacers? Especially the front doesn't really look like it's as high as ET42.

piggelin · 05-05-2010, 05:19 AM

yes its without spacers

DrDurt · 05-05-2010, 08:24 AM
