Finally took a few quick pics with my wheels.
19x8.5 +35 and 19x9.5 +35 with Bridgestone S04 245/40 and 275/35's.
Stock ride height with ZERO rubbing. 90% sure I will not drop.

It's a one-off set as RAYS does not offer this offset normally on the Prism Dark Silver finish I got..

If anyone wants a set, I can direct you to who I got I ordered it from...

Default Vossen CV3-R 20x8.5 tire size help!!

Got a set of Vossen CV3-R in Gloss Graphite 20x8.5 all around because I'm awd and did not want to run staggered. Question I have now is what tire size should I get. I am trying to avoid rubbing. I have 245/30 in mind but want to know if 245/35 would work as well as I would like a meatier rubber. Also I am on stock height but probably will drop using the 30mm sage kit.



sneak peek....

How are the roads in PA? 245/35/20 you will most likely get rubbing on full-lock turns that may go away in time or may stay depending on your offsets. I personally couldn't live with the rubbing so I would get 235/35/20 or 255/30/20 for more meat than the 245/30!

Anyone?

i dont know if i posted this a while back but i finally found a video with them. They look similar to the mmr hr4's but those bowl in closer to the center of the wheel where this is the one in the picture because it has a gradual inward curve all the way from the outside. baddest dang wheels... too bad I cannot find them ANYWHERE! i think they are out of production. I WOULD LOOOVE TO BE PROVEN WRONG THOUGH

so you are saying that 255/30 is meatier than 245/30? I thought the higher the first number the "thinner" the tire gets. I'm not too sure so please correct me if I'm wrong.. also with your suggestion for 235 & 255, I know that 235 will fit but as for the 255, would I rub?

I was rubbing on m 235/35 on a 20x10 +15 up front... It wasn't rubbing for the first 2 months of having my wheels on then all of a sudden i started to rub on full lock turns. So i was told on my next setup to go with a 245/30 for my 20x10 +25... I like more meat on my tires due to living in MA.. any input? I didn't roll my fenders..

I'm running 20x8.5 all around you think 235/35 will rub? PA streets are rough man potholes everywhere I want to run the meatiest tires I can without any rubbing or modifications. Can someone answer my question as to how 255/30 are meatier than 245/30?
