Widest tires on Apex + M3 suspension

I'm doing some homework before I bite the bullet and make the purchase. Here's what I'm looking at.

Assuming I have all of the M3 suspension bits on the front and the rear. On the stock m-sport package dampers/springs for an e92 LCI.

1. I was looking to start with Hankook V12's and move up from there.

2. I'm hoping for a square setup for the track.

3. I was looking at the Apex ARC-8 wheels, maybe the 9" or 9.5". I think I read that 9" was the widest for the e92 in a square setup.

What's the fattest tires I can fit without rubbing? 255's all around? 265's with a fender roll?

you can run both 9 or 9.5 wide wheels with the proper offset without fender rolling, i recommend 255's all around. Goodluck.
