don't forget ball joints, tie rod ends and bushings too... they are all affected by lower offsets and wider wheels...
Thank you for the info.

i'm trying to get some varrstoen 1.1.1's in those sizes, and i really do NOT want them to ****ing stick out and rub with somewhat normal size tires.

It took me 80 pages to find the exact fitment/setup I want, then I go and read 2 pages more and it is the same setup with different issues.......

VGnomore is running 19x10+21 up front on a 245/35 and doesn't seem to have rubbing issues or any other

Chrono is running 18x10+24 on a 235/35 and claims he rubs, am I missing something?

could they just have different height setups and on one is too low?

Camber, ride height, and tires themselves play a roll in this.

My fenders are fully rolled, I am going to try for

19x10+21(F) & 19x11 or 11.5+29(R) with 245/35 or 235/35 in the front, and possibly 265/30 or 35 in the back

what do you guys think?

Do a 235/35 in the front so you don't have any issues.

I plan on running 19x9.5 +22 (F) 245/45 and 19x10.5 +22 (R) 265/45 and roll my fenders, maybe shave in a little in the back if I have to. I want to avoid tire stretching, and I believe im at about the limit where I should only have to roll my fenders but I'd like to know what you guys think?

Can a 20x10.5 work in the front with a +45? I know the fenders will have to be rolled flat at a minimum.
