Help with wheel sizes and ET

Hi all, I have a 2010 Z4 35i with the 313 style wheels. These are now getting really near impossible to source. The ones out there seem to have more cracks than a dried out lake bed. I have decided I like the look of the Veemann V-FS34 19 inch. I know my current wheel figures are front 225/35 R19 8J ET 29 - The rears are 255/30 R19 9J ET40.

The Veemann alloys are front 19 x 8.5 ET 35. The rears are 19 x 9.5 ET 43. I have had a look on the wheel fitment site - willtheyfit.com and they seem ok? When size tyres would I need as wider rim would the fronts be 235 instead of 225? The rears again would they need a 265 tyre?

Do I have enough clearance for the brake callipers and the struts? Tyres would be probably Continental SP. A lot of wonga involved and don't want to suddenly find out it messes the handling up either?

They should be fine..probably best with a 235 265 or maybe a 235 275 ..you may want to consider 5mm spacers after the event
 
235/35 front and 265/30 rear should work well with those widths. The higher offsets will tuck the wheels slightly but should still clear.

I did think of spacers. Normally try to avoid but 5mm is not a lot. I gather that would be front and back?

Probably both…try it within spacers then see..235 275 best combo in sc7
 
You could always mess about putting the alternatives in somewhere like this:- https://www.willtheyfit.com/
