    E36 coupe tire size question

    Hello, I’m brand new here and I’ve been trying to figure out the appropriate tire size to run. I have 18x8 and 18x9 wheels with a +38 offset. (2.5” and 3” lips if that matters) I have an e36 325is and want to make sure that I get the correct tires for the look I am trying to achieve. Someone suggested running 195/40 front and 205/40 rear with 15mm spacers, dialed at 50psi. But it’s nearly impossible to find 195/40s for 18s. I’m trying to achieve fender to lip fitment all around with camber or fender to lip front and tucking in the rear. Would 205 fronts and 215 rear work? It’s stock body and I’d like to have as little rake as possible. Any suggestions or advice are greatly appreciated.
