Wheel question

If I get a wheel that 19 x 8.5 (offset 25mm) with 255/40/19 tires, will there be any issues on my stock 535i x drive, with no drop?
I think it will be very close to the fender, but I'm not sure.

Folks,

I have an 2011 550i, installed MRR HR6 wheels 20x9.5 all four. Will there be an issue ?
I see the front is close to the fender, the tire shop guy said it's not rubbing any surface.

Will there be an impact to suspension, handling etc ?
The current tire size is 245/35/20.. Can I install 275/35/20 on the rear with this set ?

Thanks,
Ferry

We would need to know the wheel offset to answer that question.

What if I run 19 x 9 44 offset square set up with 255/40 /19?

It would work in the rear but you'd probably wanna run 15mm spacers minimum. Fronts would probably need them as well as that offset might hit the caliper.

Think this offset might hit the strut tower on the front. Probably worth a test fit. They will be extremely dunk in to the fender as well. Not an ideal fitment at all.
