I sold those wheels & tires a couple months ago. Currently on the OEM ZHP wheels. It was just time for a change and I didn't feel like storing them for the winter.
The full specs were:
VMR V710 in Hypersilver
19x8.5 ET35 front with a 235/35/19 tire
19x9.5 ET45 rear with a 255/30/19 tire
Tires were Dunlop SP Sport Maxx
I'm still on the same suspension setup - KW V2 coilovers
Fenders are lightly rolled.

Did you roll your fenders? That set up looks perfect for me. I would like to find something lighter, 22lbs for cheap 19s isn't too bad.
Maybe these in gunmetal

+1... I once tried on a set of 17x9 +40 wearing 255/40/17 Toyo RA1s and didn't get 10 feet before the rubbing started on the right rear corner.
I run 18x8.5 +42 offset with 255/35/18 tires and some tires rub a little, others do not. My issue is up inside the rear fender well, not on the lip. Under full compression I'll get minor rubbing... like in an uphill corner on the throttle, or large dips. Casey's stretched tire is what allows him to run that setup for the same reason.
Man, I sure like the look of those V710's! I wish I had the coin for forged BBS wheels of similar design. I've warmed up to the SSR Comp-Hs, but they were not an immediate "oooh, ahhh" reaction from me when I bought them. I went with them cuz they were a great deal (used with new PS2s), light, easy to clean, and square. I miss the look of the 135s too, but not the cleaning hassle. Since getting my car new products have come out to make wheel cleaning easy though.
Agree with Jeff.
There will be a ton of work in the wheel well to make a 10.5 or 11 work.
Jeff, as you'll recall (back in the day), many of us had to put M5 wheel liners on our 5-series vehicles to accommodate the wider rims we were putting on our cars. Beyond a 10-inch wheel, there were actual modifications that had to be done in the wheel well, too.
On my 5 series I had to roll the fender, pull the fender out, and swap wheel liners. True, I was running an aggressive offset, but that's a lot of work just to make a 10-inch width work.
I can only imagine the kind of work necessary to make a 10.5- or 11-inch width work.
