Is This Setup Too Aggressive?

Hello Gents, Question...

I have an 08 E60 (550i) w/ Sport Package currently running the stock staggered setup (8.5x19, 9.5x19. Current tire sizes are: 245/35-19, 275/30-19 respectively.

I'm l found a nice used setup:

19x10 et5
19x11 et5

So my first question... Is it possible to stretch my current tires on these wheels? If so, would this setup work with only a fender roll without rubbing? I don't want to do any additional body work.

Thanks in advance for your patience and help with this. Any supporting pictures of similar setups for me to reference would be great!

Chris

Yeah that's a pretty wide wheel up front. You will have to measure out your current inner wheel to strut/spring perch clearance. If you already have less then 5mm clearance then the wheel will stick out from the fender since that extra width has to go some where.
