19x9.5 ET27 is about the lowest you can go without rubbing (with 265 tires).

I have 19x9.5 with Bridgestone pole positions (run bigger than most tires), with a 19 offset. My car is an E92 as well.

you can mount as low as a 15mm in the rear with a 9.5 rear wheel. just depends on what look your going for with the car.

i have a 19x10 37 offset with an 18mm spacer on top of that...so that would put the offset at 19..it sits very flush lol. but if you want it to look aggressive and not rub you can get m3 offset which is 22 i think.

what will happen with those offsets is the rear will look really aggressive, and the front will look completely opposite, and stick in the fender... some members on here are running spacers on their wheels, perhaps that's an option you can think of. with a 15 or 18mm spacer, you'll get the aggressive look front and back.

yea run spacers on both if any at all. i also have a 15mm on the font so they sit flush as well.

your going to need spacers up front, it will fit but be sunk in and look weird.

Spacers or not in the rear, depending on how you want it to sit.
