Wheel fitment issue for E89 - Help needed

Hi all... hope someone can help. :helpp!:

I am currently riding on 18" wheels BMW style #294, with 8Jx18 in front (ET29, with 225/40/18 tyres) and 8.5Jx18 at the rear (ET40, with 255/35/18 tyres).

I intend to switch to 19" wheels. However, it seems the set i want only comes in 9J in front, and 9.5J at the rear.

Would they fit my car? If so, what offset should the wheels be, and what size tyres should I use?

From my research, it seems that I can't fit 225/35/19 tyres in front cos they'll be too stretched. Will I then have to go for 235/35/19 in front, and 265/30/19 at the rear? It seems a bit much....

Many thanks in advance to all of the experts here!

Thanks for all the advice.

They've managed to find an 8.5J for the front, so that's great. So my wheels are going to be as follows:-

Front: 8.5Jx19 235/35/19 ET30
Rear: 9.5Jx19 255/30/19 ET32

Is that fine? Should I need to go 265 at the rear?
