So.. Looking for a 2nd set of wheels, maybe doing some HPDE (OEM tire has been plugged and tore a few chunks off at auto-x). Looking for somewhat lightweight/strong, but not looking fully forged.

I see decent deals on Konig Ultraform (flow/rotary forged), looking at: 19x9 ET35/25 and 19x10.5 ET40. Can also do 19x8.5 ET35/45 in the front or 19x9.5 ET35/45 in the rear.

Currently looking at maybe General G-Max RS in 255/35-19 front and 295/30-19 rear. That's the OEM rear on the front (661.1 mm) and 659.6 mm on the rear. I'm doing Ark springs (~1 inch drop). Am I better off doing 245/35-19 and 285/30-19? Want to avoid rubbing first, widest tires possible second. Well, and save some $$ obviously - the Konigs are around $250/wheel.

Any thoughts?

FWIW, I'm running INOVIT Vector 19x8.5, 19x9.5 with Conti DWS06 in 245/35 and 285/30. So slightly different wheel widths. IIRC my offsets are 30 and 40. They fit, front slightly inboard, rear flush. And snug.

Thanks. So 19x8.5 ET30 and 19x9.5 ET40? Do you think ET35 would fit in the rear? I think that's 5mm further towards the outside of the car? Lowered or not?

More pics please!

Previously posted, I don't have many. It's been raining for a couple months.

35 rear would be a slight poke, I think. Mine's lowered, Eibach. With 35 it seems to me it'd be *very* close on the wheel arch...but then it is just a 5mm difference. Less than a quarter inch. Might be okay?

Thanks. Hard to pass up flow-formed wheels for ~$250 a piece.. But, they just don't make them in "good" sizes. Might have to do more searching..

Anyone have any thoughts about Mustang "Performance Pack" wheels fitting? Specs are:
Size: 19" x 9" (Front) 19” x 9.5” (Rear)
- Lugs: 5-Lug (5 x 114.3mm/5 x 4.5")
- Finish: Matte Black
- Backspacing: 165.8mm (Front) 179.7mm (Rear)
- Offset: +45mm (Front) +52.5mm (Rear)

Slightly too much offset? Someone's selling a set CHEAP near me with one wheel with some curbage. Since I want them for track / auto-x, don't really care..

What’s the hub bore?

 

[turboAWD]

I'm guessing 70.5 or 70.6, that seems to be the most common Mustang size.

Varian Xenon:
19x8.5 +33 245/40
19x10 +40 275/35
Lowered on ARK springs

GT-F or -S?

 

[WA_STNGR]

can I get a slew of more photos, and if you are on it, your instagram? Im very seriously considering running the same size set up, but with Ace Alloy AFF05, or Stance SF07
thanks

Sorry man, that's all I have at the moment...it's been raining for 2 months straight up here and, well...dirty car pics suck.

Also, per your other question, springs are ARK GT-F.

I have a GT2 AWD that will be lowered on Eibach springs next week. After that I will be upgrading the wheels from the yucky square 18" set up I have now. I am currently looking at the Vossen VFS-1 20x9 +32mm with 245/30/20 tires in the front and 20x10.5 +45mm with 285/25/20 tires in the rear. Will that setup work without too much poking and with no rubbing?

Would 245/35/20 in the front and 285/30/20 in the rear be better for tires?

The Vossen VFS-1 also come in 20x10 +45mm. Would that be better with 285/25/20 tires compared to 20x10.5?

Silver.

So after all that what I received was 19x9.5 40 offset for the rears instead of the 45 spec'd, but I figured we'd just see how it went. Good news! Poke vs. no poke is a preference thing...for me it's not something I want on mine. So I was pleased to see what I'd call fluuussshhh on the rear, slightly tucked front. I can live without the 5mm.

Final specs:
Inovit Vector in silver (they also have black) from Fitment Industries, all TPMS and lugs, etc, in the package.
19x8.5 35ET with Conti DWS06 245/35/19 front
19x9.5 40ET "" " " 285/30/19 rear

The car is filthy. It rains here. Meh.

So, would it work to do 4 of these, 19x8.5 35ET, for a square setup? I still don’t fully understand if I need different offsets if I’m doing a square setup.

Yes, that would work just fine. The whole point of doing a square setup is so you can rotate the wheels front to back, so you need the same offset front and rear.
