What is the proper offset for 19" staggered setup? I don't really want to use adaptors or spacers if I can help it. What I gathered from reading the forum is that 245/40/19 and 275/35/19 have the least amount of hassle in terms of rubbing.

Front offset 12, rear offset 17. These are the offsets for the 167 M6 wheels. Not the same as the 167 M5 wheel.
Which one looks better M6 fitment or M5???

Better fitment without spacer is the 167 M6 wheels. Go with 275/30/19s to avoid possible rubbing. I'm pretty sure that if you ran 285/30/19s with the 167 M6 wheels you'll rub under compression.

What would you recommand for non-factory wheels? I am thinking BBS. I have always liked LM! I am seriously considering LM in gold for my soon-to-arrive alpine white 535d. RGR and RSGT look almost the same except one is two piece. so fronts 8.5" and rear 9.5"? BBS only make 10" for teh rear I think. Oh and would 19" with M sport suspension be too stiff for a baby car?
