Aggressive wheel question

Here goes, I plan on doing Koni FSD's with BMWPS or Koni FSD's with eibach pros my question is whats the most aggressive wheel/tire combo i can do without any sort of fender rolling or trimming of liners or stretching tires. If i have to adjust a bit of camber thats fine but nothing else. I do not want the wheel sticking out way past the fender i'd like it more or less in line with the fender..

Thanks in advance

18's in a low 40 or 19's in a high 40 offset. Keep width lower on higher offset and vice versa. I know the Alufelgen SF-71's are about one of the most aggressive looking commercial 19" wheel, but there are lots of options in 18's.

Looking for 18's either 18x8.5 square setup or a staggered 18x8.5F & 18x9R

What we typically recommend for a rub-free fitment would be a 18x8.5 +45, 18x9.5 +50. If you want to run a bit more aggressive, you can run a +45 offset in the rear instead of the +50.

Photos of a 8.5 +45, 9.5 +45 VB3's. Factory sport suspension.

Okay thats a little too aggressive and i'm sure with bmw ps or eibachs i'd suffer from some serious rubbing? Those are sticking way past the rear fender.

What if I ran a +45 in the rear but instead of 9.5 ran either a 9 or 8.5
