About to put new tires on the car. I am on the fence between oem Michelin PSS and a set of forged TSW Nurburgring 19x9 +40 with a 255/35/19 and a 19x10.5 +40 with a 295/30/19 Michelin PSS. Not an offset guru and I have NEVER had a car that I put stock diamter wheels on in my life ( LS went from 18 to 22") New game looking for wheel weights as opposed to pure style and size. Not sure if this will fit. I can take the car in for fender shaving if needed but would rather not.

Thanks for your help guys

Front is easy. Rear, will need a bit of camber and fenders pull. I'm on 19x10.5 +35 with 275 PSS tires for the rear right now, running -3 camber with shaved fenders just to clear. You will need a decent pull to run the 295

Don't mean to threadjack but I've been trying to figure out something similar. Would 19x11 +59 (9mm less than the TSWs I8ABMR is looking at) also with 295/30 make that much of a difference? Would a roll suffice?

^ A roll might suffice, but to be on the safe side, I'd also go for a slight pull. At worst, some camber adjustments, but not much.. I know 19x11 with high 50s offset will essentially extend outward by about 3/4 to nearly 1 inch, so there will most likely need to be a little camber. This is presmuming that you run corresponding tires as opposed to going for a stretched look just to make it all fit in the rear without doing too much beyond mounting and balancing.

To I8ABMR- the rear will extend about 1.33 inches, so my suggestion would be, if you're really set on these wheels, to roll the fenders, slight pull, and camber a little bit. Especially with a 295 tires, there will be rubbing even with just a roll. I know because I feel the rubbing with my 295s even with a roll and slight pull. I just haven't had time to work with the camber yet.

I'm 19x11 +55 with a 305 PSS.
3.5 degrees of camber, rolled fenders, tabs ground, NO PULL and I can finally say I don't rub with a less then one finger gap.

I think your fronts will be just fine, but the rears are pushing it. I ordered 20x10.5 +45 rear with 285/25/20 tires. And they will be pretty flush, I think going an inch smaller in the rim size but 295/30 with a more aggressive offset may rub. I think you may have to roll the fenders. Hit up Need4Speed motorsports, here on the forums. They have the best prices around anyways and they guarantee your fitment, so if they say its good and it doesn't fit they will replace or refund Nice meeting you today BTW!

If you still plan to track the car, putting more camber in the rear is going to make it an understeering pig. Decide what you plan to with the car before you make fashion mods.

After meeting RedlineAZ today and seeing what his Michelin PSS look like on his car I think I may just go with the oem sizes. Honestly when I saw his Michelins relative to my skinnier Bridgestones , even running the same size tires we looked like we had different sizes. He even had less fender gap because of the Michelins.
