Here's a couple pics of the 408m with the stock suspension. Pics above are after lowering, wheel spacers and camber adjustments. Tires are larger than standard as well, 245/45-19.
I'm trying to fit the OEM M5 cold weather setup on a 535i. The wheels are the 408M with 9Jx19 ET32 fronts and 9Jx19 ET25 rears, like yours. But I plan to use the stock tire size of 255/40R19. Just wondering if you had any rubbing issues with either the stock or lowered suspension. I wasn't sure if the 9Jx19 ET25 rears were too aggressive for the non-M F10.
The rears on mine have been fine so far. I haven't heard of any issues using the 255/40-19.

My fronts will rub with too much steering angle on large compressions, but I'm lowered with camber arms and using 10mm spacers… not really applicable to your situation.

When the car had stock suspension the 408M worked perfectly with the 245/45-19, no issues front or rear.
