Need Help With Fitment
Im going to finally take off the MRR HR3 wheels and going with some Ordens. I want the most aggressive look possible with 19s and for the rear I want to run 275 tires. I've been told so many different stories. One vendor told me the widest I can go is 10 +20 in the rear and another told me 19x10.5 +26 or 19x11 +20 with the fenders pulled. I posted a pic of what Im going for but would like a little more lip. Not sure who's car it is but it looks good.

Your car looks amazing. The vendor I plan on purchasing my wheel from is telling me I should go with 9" up front and 10" ET20. 51mm dish on the front and 63mm on the rear. Im thinking this would be a little weak. I just got the Aristo swap done and my car spins with ease, I want as much meat in the back as possible but also have a nice agressive look as well.

Indeed, these cars have a fair amount of room if you're willing to do some work. I've had 20x10.0 front and 20x12.0 rear for years!

As for the sidewall ratio, that depends on a lot of factors. If you're trying to keep the overall wheel/tire size the same as stock, you'll have to get pretty thin tires. It all depends on what look you're going for and how uncomfortable you're willing to make the ride to get the look you want (since thinner tires = less rubber = harsher ride). I highly recommend using a tire/wheel calculator as a benchmark for fitment.

Hope this was helpful!

Picked up some used wheels just wondering what tires do i put on it.
Theyre 19 / 8.5 +40 (all around), also what size spacers for a flush gapless look.
no fender mods currently.

Prep for paint.
Sanded. 400grit then 600grit
Painted. Rustoleum gloss white. 7cans total.
Feather 2 light coats. 2 medium coats. (No Clear Coat)
Cured for 24 hours. Ill be mixing the lugs like that. Only have 3 center caps. Might just not use them.
Since i didnt get much opinions on tires for my size wheels. I just decided to wrap them in 235/35r19 all around. I think these are perfect for this size. How ever seeing the set up now. I think i want them skinnier maybe 215/35r19 is this considered stretching them ?
All balanced and good to go. Little harsh comfort wise. But “whooooo cares” lol jk, im alright with it. I was thinkin 40 series but 35 isnt as bad as i thought. Heres how it looks on the car. Im thinking roll the fenders. And spacer it about 25mm.
