What wheel offsets?

What wheel sizes will fit on the E90? Specifically if I'm looking for a square track setup, what offsets can work?

what's the max tire size for the front and back on stock rims?
using that we can calculate for any aftermarket rim

The E90/92 Ms run a much lower offset...you'll need to add a 15mm spacer to get that work on these cars.

When adding a spacer you subtract the spacer width from the offset, so in this case it would be a +20.

The OEM 19" offsets if I recall are:

19x8.5 et28
19x9.5 et22

19x8.5 et28
19x9.5 et22
The OEM offsets for both 18 and 19 are

F: 29mm
R: 23mm

I have run 18x9.5 ET25 at front and rear with 265/35x18 tires and it works fine.
