BBS LM fitment question

Will 19x10 fit in the rear or a W211 E55? Offset is 32mm.

Also how abt 19x8.5 in front with a 28mm offset.

Tire sizes: 235/30 and 285/30...

Anyone know?

First of all I love LM's! My wheels were made for my car and they are 19x10 285/30 and 19x9 245/35 and I am not sure what the offsets are. I am slammed with zero rubbing.

The 19" LMs that work for the E55 are 8.5f and 9.5r and they should both have an offset of 32mm. The max tire size you can run is 255f and 285r (less if you're lowered). I would be careful with that set-up. Do a test fit if possible.

i think offset is perfect for an aggressive stance. my offset in the front is 28mm as well (20 x 9 wheel) and no rubbing. i would run 245 front and 285 rear tires. like Rock said, if possible, try a test fit.

thanks for the input guys.

jts - are you using spacers with a 28mm offset?

and a 19x10 will fit in the rear for the E55 (offset 32)? I plan on running a 285/30....

These rims are second hand so I want to make sure they fit. would love to do a test fit but it wont be possible until I get the wheels. Thats why I want to make sure they fit first...

yes, i'm running 10 mm spacers making the offset 28 mm front. regarding rear offset of 32mm, i believe Rock said the LMs should fit.
