Those are good fitments for the M3. the front will sit very flush and is considered at "tuner" fitment. The rear will fit very well also. no spacers will be required for either. let me know if you have any other fitment questions or tire spec inquires for fitment.

You have very little choice in terms of the rear. You have either 19x10 +25 or 19x11 +25. I personally would go with the 19x11 +25 because the x10 still have some room to work with.

ET17 should be fine... it wont be too tucked in. plus you want to reduce the chance of rubbing if you decide to lower the car.

+1. 19x10 +25 sits too in for my tastes. I was running a 15mm spacer on top of that on my old setup.

You will be fine.

If you reverse mount the rears you will look like this:
