M235i 245s in the front!?

I知 having the most difficult time finding wheels for my m235i down to niche DFS 18x8 et +40 or a set of sparco podio 18x8 et +45
I wanted to stagger the wheels but I can稚 find any 8.5 or 9.5 to do it so I知 thinking of going 245 all the way around any one know if they値l rub up front ? Or y誕ll think I can get away with doing 235/40 r18 front and 255/40 r18 rear. Send help man I知 lost af lol

I'm running a 245 square set up for my 235i xdrive. I use the stock rear 18's in the front, I bought a spare set from a junkyard. I have VAC camber plates in the front and a 12mm spacer.

245/35 will fit without any rubbing on an 8.5" wheel with an effective offset of anything from ET35-40 but you will need additional camber of at least 1.5 degrees.

The rear offset for 9.5 inch wheels should be much higher. If not you may have a little too much wheel poke. The fitment guide I used recommended et58 for 9.5 inch wheels in the rear.
