Very nice and clean car. 
But the 19" wheels and rims on the side photo looks very small.

Very nice! Kewl mirrors too!
Are the wheels the same size front & rear? What offset are they? The rubbing on the front w/ the fender lip or something in the inside?

The rubbing is on the front tires with the inside fender liner.

I finally have some time to wash my car and take some pictures of my car. It's a 530xi with 19" Iforged Classic and 245/35/19 PS2. Several members have asked me to show them the pics and want to see whether lowering is necessary with the xi model with 19" rims. With 245/35/19 tires there will be some rubbing in the front when I turn the steering ALL THE WAY to one side. So rubbing will be even worse if the car is lowered. And to me lowering is not necessay since I think the gap is not that bad. Hope you guys like my ride. 
Your car looks very classic and clean. No need to lower it IMHO. Your preference though. BTW, your home and general neighborhood looks equally upscale and fine also. ENJOY & BEST REGARDS!

Ahhh, do you know if the staggered & spacer is not possible due to the AWD limitation thing w/ xi model (that may effect xDrive ability)? I found the Style 124 info and they are in diff. size but rather confuse tryin' to map the offset to bigger size.
Do you think if they are ET 38 (not sure about the width) like your Breyton it won't rub to the inside up front and a bit better on the back?

Yes, the wheels are 19"x8.5" with ET 40 all around and tires are all the same size too. I can only use same size all around on the xi model. I wanted to add spacers at the back but apparently that is not possible for the xi model too. The rubbing is on the front tires with the inside fender liner.

I'm sure ET38 will be fine too becasue I've tried to put on a wheel with that offset and it's fine.
