Hhmm...possibly, you might need to get some spacers. I met a guy in the mid-atlantic area sporting 20" on this GG FG2.

It will work with right modifications (proper offset) and if that is the look you want, go for it. Just remember, the ride will suck. Tires will be like solid rubber and will feel every imperfection in the road. Plus, if you hit a pothole at a high speed, most likely you will damage your rim.

19x8.5 with maybe a +40 or +38 offset may work.....with some camber and fender rolling....235 will work or maye even stretch to a 225i have 18x8.5 +38....so 8.5 with +38 will work its just the height of the rim u wanna be concerned about

Eh, I wouldn't go lower than 42 offset for 8.5 width wheels. 19x8.5 w/ 225, 45 offset is the safest. With 45 offset you can probably fit 235s w/o rolling. If you go with 38 offset or below it's pretty much guaranteed that you'll need to roll fenders.
