This is variation of APEX fitment guide, but ET28 instead of ET35.
I'm running moderately lowered suspension with -3.0 front camber, -2.0 rear camber.

Thoughts?

APEX Reference:
Hardcore Track & Race, Square Setup
Front & Rear: 18x9.5" ET35 with 265/35-18 tires
ARC-8, EC-7, EC-7RS, FL-5, SM-10, VS-5RS
At least 5mm front spacers are required for inner strut clearance. Aftermarket suspensions that are known for reduced inner clearance (see below) can not be used with this fitment.
At least -3 degrees of front negative camber required.
275/35-18 tires can be used with additional negative camber.
LCI: Sedan and wagon may require rolled rear fenders and/or negative camber to prevent rubbing.
Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out in regards to your E90 3-Series. Running an 18x9.5" square setup on the non-M E9X chassis can be a bit tricky due to both inner suspension and outer fender clearances. That said, overall fitment is typically dependent on your specific suspension and camber plate setup, as well as your specific tire selection.

That said, would you be able to share what suspension and camber plates you have on the car? Also, if you have any idea what specific compound tire you want to run in the 265/35-18 size, that would also be helpful.

Once I have that info, I can dive into that setup in a bit more detail.
