Aftermarket Wheels

Yeah, shouldn't be an issue at all in the rear. It actually is 26mm further away from anything on the inside compar d to the 10.5 inch wheel. And 12mm less poke than the 10.5 so no problem.

Oh, great! Thanks for the info!

Any photos of your setup?

I’d like to see how the fronts fit to the fender and if I might need spacers in the rear to avoid too much of an “inboard” look.

Not doing any of this for the looks, but if I’m improving performance, I might as well make choices that look decent.

Very nice. Very helpful. Thank you.

Wanting to go square with tires, as well, for obvious reasons…with as much meat as practical, I’m hoping for 265/35R19 on the 19 x 9s.

I’m on stock AWD suspension, so more fender gap clearance than you, obviously, but, I suspect, more wheel travel.

With 245 up front you have no rubbing, correct? With an extra centimeter inside and outside (a pinky finger’s width) would you see any obvious rubbing issues? The section width of the 265 is 10.7 inches…just about at the rim’s width.

With your front/rear wheel widths and offsets, I’m guessing I’ll need to allow for the possibility of thin spacers in the rear to get the equal flushness you enjoy.

Again, thank you for all this help!

For flush fitment on lowered suspension, you can do 19x9 +30 (245/40/19) up front and 19x10.5 +45 (275/35/19) in the rear.

I’m on stock suspension and I run 20x9 +32 (245/35/20) and 20x10 +45 (285/30/20) and it’s flush fitment. Lowered suspension tucks the wheels in a bit more so you can go lower on the offsets.

Kind of hard to see the actual wheels at this angle, but they look sharp as hell.

Whats a comfortable offset for our cars that sit flush but dont rub

Dependent on width
My 9.5 in wide have +22 offset and from that as a base... Maybe +18 give or take would not rub for a 9.5 inch wide wheel

This is based on my tires poking out a bit from the fender/bumpers

Someone will have to test or reply with better info.

Can you please share the wheel type.. your fitment/wheel setup is exactly what I want.. I love the concave look! Nice setup mate!

Got my new wheels/tires installed today. I got a wheel and tire package from Tirerack. I went from the stock 19s wheels to 18x8.5+35mm offset all around, so it's a square setup now.

Wheels are Konig Lockouts in bronze. They are cast wheels, so no the lightest compared to other offerings. However they are still significantly lighter than the stock 19s.

Tires are 255/40ZR18 Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus

Took some quick parking log pics right after they were put on the car. I love them more than I expected! I was shopping on a budget and really wanted 8.5in bronze wheels in a square setup. These were the most inexpensive compared to most other offerings by about $200 total or so.

Honestly great to know 22 offset fits in the rear with some camber, looks like my next set of wheels is going to be 9.5 +22 all around, and I have a wheel in mind
