is it safe to use wheels that the offset is off by 1 or more? For example the rims i'm looking at are 46 mm offset wheels.
Thanks,
Jay
it is unusual for rims to have those offsets. But with +46 offset, your wheels are going to be tucked in more. There isn't any safety concerns, only fitment. I don't know the other specs of your rims or tires. any offset is okay, just depends on how you want your wheels to look like.
Need help figuring out what offsets width and tires I can run for some 18" 19" 20" vishunus with minimal stretch and no spacers, rolled fenders
i have 19" niche rims. 19x8.5 +35 front and 19.9.5 +35 rear. 225/35/19 front and 235/35/19 rear. I have coil overs and I am dropped pretty low, I don't remember how much drop but I guess ~1.75inches from stock.
Front: it clears pretty well EXCEPT that it rubs a little bit because of that stupid plastic tab on the fender liner, only on bumps and dips. Otherwise it is a great fitment with some room for error (hitting small dips).
Rear: imo, perfect fitment. My fenders are rolled so I have like a quarter inch clearance from the fender. Which is perfect for me so that there is room for error. +35 offset and 9.5" tucks the rear a little bit which is what I like.
If you look at the car, all wheels look pretty flushed. I think +35 is generally the most common because it does make more wheels flush on cars. Don't quote me on that though . I also have pictures of my wheels if you want to take a look. Let me know
add: I also wanted minima stretch with as much tire as possible. This is pretty much it for my degree of drop and rims. But if you're stock height, you can probably go 245/35 front and 265/35'rear

Hey guys. I'm in the market for some new wheels; my last setup was pretty spot on in terms of my fitment, except I remember wanting slightly more poke in the front.
I was running: 19x8.5 +30 235/35/19 ; 19x10 +38 (5mm spacer) so ~ +33 265/30/19
Will this work for the new setup or am i calculating something a bit wrong:
19x8.5 +25 225/35/19 ; 19x9.5 +20 235/35/19
I'm about the purchase these oem SC400/SC300 rims/225/55/r16 +50 offset (http://www.kijiji.ca/v-tires-rims/ca...ims/1203548335) as my winter and willtheyfit.com says there's only a 3% Speedo error. Does anyone see and foreseeable issues running this setup on an IS250 2007 (AWD)?
Pretty useful just tried it with a set of wheels i ordered and like the fact you can check out if your odometers correct depending on tire profile and all that
looking to buy some Vossen CVT in either 19s or 20s, anyone running these with some aggressive offsets? Looking to not stretch as much as possible but still be lowered. Don't mind rolling fenders. also probably will raise height an inch at most.
Anyone have experience with 20" X 9" +35 and 20" X 10.5" +41 on the F ? Any issues with this setup ?
I ran similar specs on my IS250 (+45 in the rear) without major issues. You just need to roll your fenders and replace the front bumper tab depending on how low you go. I was lowered about 2 inches and didnt need any modifications, I just rubbed through the fender liner on turns. I went lower (tucking some tire in front and rear) and I needed to mod the fenders/tab.
Im going with at new set of wheels down the road and was wondering what I need to do in order for them to fit. The wheels I plan on buying are the Linea Corse 818 19x10 +38 on all four. I want to have a 255/35 front and 265/35 rear tire. This will be on a 07 is350. I know I will have to roll the rear fenders but don't know about the front. The car will be on lowering springs. 1" front .8" rear.

Alright, only going less than an inch all alright lowered dont really care to drop it a ton. hope it turns out fine for me, didnt wanna mod any fenders thats why i went custom. well see when i through them on
I currently am sitting on 19x9.5 +27 215/35 front and
19x10.5 +28 255-35 rear. Rear has a -3 camber. I wanna switch it up to 19x10 +38 225/35 front and 19x11 +38 255/35 rear and maintain my -3 rear camber. I am basically trying to suck my fronts in about 5 mills and my rear sucked in by about 3 mills all while keeping the same lip outer depth all the way around. Worried about clearance of oem brake calipers but mostly if that setup will clear inner struts or control arms of the suspension
planning on buying Vossen CV7s in 19" for my 08 IS350 lowered on H&R springs for the moment, upgrading to BC's soon. My choices are 19x8.5 +32, 19x8.5 +15 and 19x10 +38, and 19x10 +20. Fenders are rolled all the way around but trying to avoid any kind of fender pulling. Also what tires would you run and I'm trying to keep stretching as minimal as possible.
