new wheels arrived today...too wide?

I have an 08 335xi. New wheels arrived today - 19" gun metal CSLs (8.5" rim diameter).. Came mounted on Gooydear Ealge F1s that are 235/35/19. I haven't mounted them yet but they look wide....real wide. Are these things going stick out past my fenders? I hope they didn't send me the wrong size.

So are these the accurate size? I'm assuming they are??? I ordered them from EAS and told them my model and the rims I wanted. I assumed they would size these accurately.

LOL..what are the offsets? Wheels always look bigger when they're not on the car.

8.5'' width is not wide at all..it's the smallest you would get in aftermarket wheels. 8.5'' front, 9.5 or 10'' rear is the normal set up for aftermaret rims.

I have 8.5" front and 9.5" in the back with 275/30/19 in the back and they fit just fine.
