Wheel width/offset/size and tire fitment Q&A thread
#66
Need opinions on this setup and what everyone would recommend. I'm torn between these two sizes for the Matte Black Volk TE37s;
19x9.5 +22 Front/ 19x10.5 +22 Rear
OR
19x9.5 +12 Front/ 19X10.5 +12 Rear
For tires I was looking at 235/35 front and 265/30 rear.
Originally I was going to go with the +22 setup and just do 10mm spacers, but I've never been a huge fan of spacers so if I can just get the wheels in those size I'd prefer it. Originally I didn't think the +12 would clear, but now everyone is saying they should.
I'll be running BC Coilovers and it's pretty much a daily driver so it won't be super dumped, but it will be fairly slammed.
I don't have a problem shaving the inside of the fenders and doing some minor (very minor) rolling if necessary, but I'm not looking to do any real metal work on my fenders.
What do you guys think of that setup? How bad do you think it will rub? Any recommendations or changes? Thanks!

im gona go for +22!
if im not wrong running: 19x9.5 +12 Front/ 19X10.5 +12 Rear
Will def need fenderwork and more stretch for being able to fit. The +22 in rear with a 10.5 is realy flushed when lowered quite much.

Trying to find ideal offset and width for the front, I think I know what I need on the rear.
Would 18x8 +35 fit the front flush?
on the rear I want to run 18x9 +29
I intend on bagging the setup in the near future.

I am wanting to know what the widest front and rear 19" wheels and tires I can run on my 2GS. I want the tires to be flush, and do NOT want the wheels so wide that the tires need to be stretched in order to fit. 1.5" lowered, and am not going to mod the fenders at all.
