In the case of E82 coupe, you need about ET45 to fit 235/40 front tyre. However if you get ET43 and make a small camber adjustment it would also be fine in the case of most 235 road tyres. Except some track style tyres have square shoulders that could cause problems for the front. If fitting 225/40 front tyres, again it depends on the tyre brand, but around ET40 to ET43 would be safe for the E82.
My car is an e81 130i. So it's different that e82,at least rear wheels,no?

He wrote that had installed 24mm front and rear spacers. But i don't know it's truth.
