19x9.5 Fitment

I'd really like to run 19x9.5" in the front.

I've seen this on a few cars but didn't find much information other than wheel width.

Looking for best offset and tire size to accomplish this. Hoping I don't have to go too crazy with camber.

youd have to run et 27 just to clear the inside strut and that would push the wheel out 26mm from stock. there is no way on the f30 that will clear without fender work and camber

I've seen people on here run +33, +35, and even +22 (with a lot of camber) up font on x9.5. But very few have done it.

Here's the car with the 19x9.5 +33 all around:

Since you can't dial in additional camber without getting camber plates (or coils with Camber plates like BC), you would have to go with a narrower tire up front, probably 235/35, and an offset/ET in the mid-30s.

As mentioned above you will need stretched tires and negative camber for sure, at least -2.5 degrees with a 235 tire. If you don't plan on getting coilovers with camber plates or at least the plates themselves, don't even attempt this setup. Your poke will just look ridiculous. There are a few guys running 9.5 fronts but they have done the required work to make them fit.
