I really love the Avant Garde M359 design and I have seen the 18's on the M235i, but I would really like to get the 19X9.0's if they fit! I believe they have an offset of ET35. Also I am lowered on H&R's at the momen5t so I do know that may reduce clearance. They also have another variant of the 19X9.0 but the offset is ET18 and I am wondering what that would do to its look. Can anyone give me some answers?

One of the best ways to find out if fitment works is to compare your specs to what's already been done. Theoretically, any fitment can be done. It just depends on what look you're trying to achieve and how far you're willing to go to make it work.

These pictures show our VMR V803 and V710 in 19x8.5 ET35 | 19x9.5 ET45 on H&R Springs. Lowering, in most cases, will reduce clearance as it (obviously) brings the fender closer to the wheel/tire assembly. It, however, can also help with clearance as the natural negative camber can aid in "tucking" the wheel into the fender well.

(F) x9 ET35 vs 8.5 ET35
(R) x9 ET35 vs 9.5 ET45

(FRONT) x9 ET35 would be another 6MM further out towards the fender. That said, it's probable to use that setup in the front without rubbing issues if you : roll the front fenders, stretch a smaller tire, or add some negative camber. Inner clearance will be just fine.
(REAR) x9 ET35 is 4mm further out towards the fender vs x9.5 ET45. This may or may not require modification to make fit. This would depend on your choice in tire size/brand/model and current alignment/camber specs. The easiest remedy to rid of any rubbing would be : minor fender roll, add negative camber, or run stretched tire (probably not necessary). Inner clearance will be just fine.
