* my definition of "extreme" is:
- tires: definitely wider than OEM (meaning 235/35R19 front, 255/30R19 rear), as IMHO, all the 18->19" wheel conversion w/o wider tires is a futile exercise only serving aesthetic purposes - the M235i needs wider tires!!!)
- wheels: ET low enough to show at least some concavity, but high enough to avoid poking out (even if poking would not mean rubbing)
- all the above with 10-15 mm drop (like on the H&R springs)
The fitment of the wheels will not change between designs as long as all other variables are held constant, ie. offset, width, tire sizes, ride height etc. If another forum member is running the same fitment that you are looking for and claims to have no rubbing, it's safe to assume that the fitment is attainable for you as well. Again, all other variable would have to be held constant, and there are many of them.
