Is this a good wheel/tire setup?

2016 M235i Coupe RWD (Stage 1 Tuned)

I plan to go with apex wheels.
I don't have/want any spacers/suspension mods
This car is NOT tracked, however driven very spirited on public roads (straight highway and curvy country roads)

Front: 18x8.5" ET35 or ET38 with 225/40-18 tires
Rear: 18x9.5" ET58 with 255/35-18 tires

Also anything bad going staggered? (Other than tire rotation) For example will my handling on curves still be good, and also car won't be any slower?


Thank you!

I just purchased 18 x 8.5 Apex FL5 wheels with et35 offset. I plan to mount 235/40R18 Pirelli tires. Apex says that this should be an easy fit. I will then get the car aligned with more negative camber. Should make the handling a little more balanced for the track.
