Will 265 rear rub on B12 kit?

I have an 08 135i and I recently installed a B12 kit with Eibach lowering springs which drop the car about an inch all around. I also installed a JB4, DP and full M3 suspension upgrade (rear subframe bushings, control arms, guide rods). I am on a stock tire set up and want to know if i installed 265 on the rears if that would rub and require a fender roll. Also, I would have to go 245 on the front so would I have to roll those fenders as well?

I am planning on going with Pilot Super sport tires and APEX EC-7 18x8.5" ET45 Satin Black Wheel o front and Apex 18x.9.5 on the rear.

Also, what sidewall spec should I go for for front and rear with the 265/245 set up?

I recommend you call Apex directly. They will be happy to advise you on proper fitment.

Without measuring, I can't comment on the rubbing. As for sidewall profile, you'll probably need to stick with 35.
