wheel fitment
I have an e55 2005 looking to get some rims I was wondering if anyone tried running 9.5in rims up front.
Ideal setup I'm looking at is 245/35/19 for 19x9.5 front & 275/30/19 for 19x9.5 rear
As for the offset I'm trying to figure out the lowest offset where the rim can just tuck under the fenders. Any help would be appreciated.

I also happen to have 245/40 on another set of 18x9.5 rims and can tell you the tires are very stretched. 245/35 on 9.5 you would be even more so, plus you would have practically no sidewall for such a heavy load. Hope this helps

He would have more sidewall than those of us running 245/30_20s.

I run 18x9.5 ET35 with 275/35 up front. No rubbing or mods necessary and wheel clears the calipers with space to spare which means from a wheel/caliper perspective I could have gone ET36 or a couple mm's more. 275s may be the widest possible before the inner sidewall contacts the suspension or outer sidewall rubs the inner fender lining in a full lock turn.
