Hello everyone, I'm looking to get a new set of wheels. I find a set (Brenner Kraft BR03) but not sure about the offsets. I want to get a 19" wheels it has 19x8 for the front and 19x9.5 for the back. I just wounder if I can have 19x9.5 for the front too, because it has deeper look to it. it looks alot better then the 19x8 if I can, what would be the offset be for it to have a good clearance. I have a 04 530I. thanks for anyone who can help....

To prevent rubbing at the front the tyre on a 8.5" rim is 245/35R19.Depending on tyre brand,section width is ~9.8" and tread width ~8.4".In my opinion,that size of tyre on a 9.5" rim looks ridiculous.Anyway,for a 9.5" to clear the strut you would need an offset of ~14.
I think that most people go for a staggered fitment.
