Default would RPF1 fit

I'm thinking about buying some 19x8.5 22+ offset 19x10 22+ offset

would they clear the brakes in front? and would I have any rubbing issues lower on swift springs?


thanks

I have a 18x9.5+45 offset that needed a 5mm spacer to clear the brakes. Our cars require a high offset wheel so im not sure if the 22 offset would work out

RPF1's have a really hard time fitting BBK's.. I've had BBK's on almost all my previous cars and RPF1's needed spacers to fit.

But yes, low offset wheels do not really work well on ISFs unless the wheel isn't that wide.

I have an F with stock wheels and want that look. I'm shopping for rear spacers now...... I can't get a solid answer from parts guys ........ 20 or 25 mm rear spacers with stock wheels? Do I have to roll the fenders with the 25's?
Thanks!

I would have to say with 25mm you will probably need to roll fender or use a lot of camber. cause in my case with 20mm and lowered on swift the back tires will rub just a little when going try a bump when the car has a lot of cargo in the trunk and back seat and the front tires rub a little when I turn going in reverse. but again with 20mm you are pretty safe 25 might need that roll.
