Why won t it work with spacers? The back hub sticks out further than the caliper on the rear of course it will work spacers are different sizes pick the size you need and it should clear the back of the wheel face.

Hi
I am having 20" now on my gs
But after putting wrong offset and tire size I've had enough rubbing issue and etc
Since I was so stressed out I'm planning to go for 19" stagger but this time I need to do my homework enough so need you guys for help
Since I want my car better sporty look than luxury sedan look I almost decided to go for 19" with tanabe df210 springs (2" drop)
Offset that i'm looking into is 19x8.5 35 with 245/35/19 in the front and 19x9.5 35 with 275/35/19
My choices for now are xxr 006 and tsw valencia they are kinda similar look but tsw looks a lil better in my opinion
My questions are
Would it rub with that offset/tire size/lowering spring?
Which rim would you choose outta those two?
Is there other rim look better to you with affortable price?
Would my car gonna look ok with that spec?
No rubbing even with the springs?

*xxr 006 19x8.5 f 19x9.5 r black with chrome lip
*tsw valencia 19x8 f 19x9.5 r all black or black with chrome lip
What do you guys think ?
I really need you guys help!

^ pics would help, and those offsets are weak. You should go through this whole thread before you make a decision. Many have been more than helpful in posting their specs to make those looking to enhance their vehicle make informed decisions.

What are your wheel specs Reg? Your car looks clean bro, nothing wrong with how your set up looks but its not aggressive by any means. I personally like to push things to the limit no matter what it is in life, gym, bike, cars, i could go on but anyway. You made it clear that you didn t want to cut your car or run stretched tires. I have my car super low allowing me more clearance due to camber, and have shaved my fenders and ran stretched tires. I also don t have to drive my car everyday I might put 8k a year on my car if I try hard. I have a 9 +12 and a 10.5 +26 in these widths those offsets would be a 9 +41 and a 10.5 +47 those are pretty weak in comparison, just sayin !
