Wheel/size/offset and tire/size/profile...can be confusing.

[YOWStinger]

I know that a lot of these brands do all of the machining in house, you’re probably right, they buy the raw cast/forged blanks from overseas, throw them in the CNC and cut whatever face they want.

likely one of the main reasons manufacturers love the flow formed wheels is that shipping is so much cheaper for blanks that are going to be rolled on site.

This is a pretty good example of @MerlintheMad ’s 10% example actually

There is a real difference in those. Almost everything about them is different. Yours look better on your car than the Lambos would.

Come on, if you can’t see that one design is ripped off the other you’re blind

More like twenty percent plus.

I stole your rims too.... haha. I’ll have them mounted tomorrow. I had no idea that was a Lamborghini style, I just liked the design.

Rohana RFX11 wheels with Firehawk Indy Tires.

Front Wheels: 19x8.5 +35
Front Tires: 245/35/19

Rear Wheels: 19x9.5 +40
Rear Tires: 285/30/19

Everything fits great with zero fitment issues. I have the Ark GT-F springs coming next week. There is a ton of room to spare.

Thanks for putting the wheel fitment google sheet together guys.

 

[YOWStinger]

Looks fantastic! Nice fit, can’t wait to see it with the springs!

 

[jdogonroad]

Looks sweet, Hoonin.

I forgot to post the most important picture for the forum.

Well got the Aodhans in (LS007) 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 +35. Just got to wait on the snow to go away

Please post some pictures of your car with these, I am debating for FAST FC04 Flow Formed in 19" or in 20" and they look almost identical to those Aodhans LS007 and have the exact same with / offset in 19"/20". I have not yet purchased the Stinger but my dealer also sell FAST wheels so might buy those at the same time.

I need some wheel help. i dont know anything about all the offset stuff and what it means. my question is if I get some after market wheels will they fit as long as they are 5x114 like the stock ones ? should the offset just be as close to the stock numbers as possible ?

im looking at 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 ... but can front wheels fit wider than 8.5 ? would it be possible to go square at 9.5 without having to modify the car ? I am stock height and do not plan on lowering.

 

[YOWStinger]

I think someone is running 9.5 square, check the sheet, lots of options there if you’re not looking to measure it out

Sheet?

Check post #1 of this thread for a Google spreadsheet of verified wheel / tire setups.

I have 19x9.5 Niche Misano M116 +35 wheels wrapped in 255/35R19 Firehawk Indy 500 tires
I'm using Hubcentric rings on the rear - 67.1mm ID to 72.6mm OD and needed to use 5mm thick hubcentric spacers on the front (67.1mm ID)
If you went +30 instead of +35 you wouldn't need the spacers up front. (highly recommended)
Note, the car has stock Springs & struts, Eibach F&R sways, ATQ collars

Do you have pics ? The niche misano are actually the wheels I'm considering. So you have 9.5 all around? You have to have spacers for it to work ? Are they hard to install and are there drawbacks ?

19x9.5" +35 with 255/35 all the way around. Here is the post with my info and pics.

With those wheels you will need 5mm spacers up front. Unfortunately the hubcentric rings will not fit up front with the spacers installed. After a couple of months I had a custom spacer with integrated ring machined. This is the link to the design. Hubcentric rings fit fine on the rears.

I checked out your post. I found someone on fitment industries claiming to run 9.5 square with no spacers.

Is it really possible ?

I'd say it is possible. It is a different wheel style, that could have something to do with it.
The other thing is, my front rims WOULD rotate without spacers but they were REALLY CLOSE to the strut.

I didn't use a set of feeler gauges to see just how close they were but a piece of cardboard cereal box would not fit between the rim/tire and the strut. So .015" of clearance or less i'd say. That was too close for me. Others might not be as cautious, or may have never checked.

theres a post in this thread that talks about the range of acceptable offsets and widths without spacers
