Auricom I have a similar question.
I am trying to depart from my 21" staggered performance tires (without Msport brakes) for my winter setup. I am trying to do square 265/50R19 with performance winter Pirelli Scorpions.

For the R19 wheel, here's the option I see on tire rack
MSW TYPE 40
19x8
Finish: Machined w/Black Accent
Offset: +45mm

They had 19x9 but they are out of stock. Almost all 19x9 are. Tire rack told me BMW recommends 19x9 since they want to keep it universal for 19 with and without Msport brakes but since I don't have those, 19x8 works perfect.
Do you have a viewpoint on that ? If 19x9 is absolutely necessary then I will have to choose a color I don't like but if required, I can do it if it means safety.

Please let me know.
