Talking Going for super aggressive fitment on F30!

Hey guys, just picked up my first BMW - F30 335i Sedan RWD last week. I want to get this bad boy slammed with aggressive fitting wheels.

I've done it on my other cars, and there's no reason why I won't do it to this one. If you're not a fan, it's ok - but please don't add your negativity to this thread.

I'm trying to fit the below fitment:
Front: 19x9.5 +23
Rear: 19x10 +28

A few questions I need to get confirmed before I can start properly, since I've been told many different answers.

1) I've been told the F30 front fenders are PLASTIC? Not mine, I did a magnet test and it's metal - unless this plastic is some Germany creation that attracts magnets to it.

2) Is the front wheel fitment on an E90 335i the same as our F30s? I was told yes, just confirming.

3) My front fenders do a sharp ridge that needs to be rolled, but my rear fenders are FLAT. Is this normal? It looks to be OEM quality, so I don't think it was rolled.

Things I intend to Do:
1) Getting camber plates/arms and running -2.5 to -3 camber front and rear
-best brand to go with for this stuff?

2) If my front fenders are indeed metal, I will be rolling them and slightly pulling if necessary.

3) I plan to lower it so I can tuck a little bit of tire (no wheel gap!) and stretching 235s in the front, and 245s rear.

Any fitment experts, feel free to chime in!

I can help you with question 1. The front fenders are definitely not plastic!

Can't help with the rest though, sorry.

hellaflush = hellafail.

You can run the original factory staggered setup on those tires 235 and 245. No need to go with anything wider than a 8.5" on the rear for a 245.

Thanks for your post, but it provided no value. I didn't ask for opinions on if I should do it, because I am regardless of what you think. I kindly asked for my questions to be answered for those that have some knowledge in this space.
