Hey will 255/35/19 fit on the back of an e36 bmw m3 with fender roll. The rear wheels have an 46et. Please let me know if it is possible. :)

with a 46mm offset + a fender roll, you shouldn't have any problems with rubbing on the outside fender.

Thats a REALLY tall tire.

Depending on your alignment, ride height and rear spring rates, you will most likely rub on the upper part of the outer fender (above the fender lip).

If you want bling bling 19's, just stick with 235/35's or narrower IMO.

The is what ALI was using on his car, He is using 265/30/19 with a 44et. I wanted to see with a fender roll would my 19x9 with 46et with a 265/30/19 fit back there. ALI says he has no rubbing at all

265/30-19 is shorter than a 255/35-18.

When going to the limit of what the fender will hold (rubber wise), there are a lot of variables that will dictate whether or not rubbing will occur. Its not a yes/no answer.

Final answer is, try it and find out for yourself. Just dont expect it to fit without any problems.
