I like those bbs reps. What brand are they?

Nothing wrong with having replica wheels, just dont pass them off as authentic with BBS center caps

YSM 944, in hyper silver, I got them from an importer that has a whole container full. Came with caps and he even gave me hub rings!

Yeah I know it's ****ty to run the BBS caps but I think it's better than no caps at all. I just had them mounted on Saturday and have gotten many compliments about them, I let everybody know they are reps, even the guy at discount tire offered to buy them on the spot.

I am experiencing light rubbing when turning and hitting a bump and also in dips. I'm running 275/30 19 on the rear, what tire size do you guys recommend? I'm currently OEM but will swap in a set of H&R springs to reduce the wheel gap.

You can go to 265/30, or just roll your fenders. I think rolling would end up costing less.

Are you rubbing on the rear? I am running 19x9.5+35 with 255/35/19 in the rear. Zero rubbing no matter what. However I am thinking of running 5mm spacer to make rears even more flush. Will try them out soon.

Very slight rub on highspeed sharp turns or on big dips in the rear. The rub is so slight that there aren't even any marks on my tires yet.

Need help from the Wheel/Tire gurus.....

I'm currently running (F19x9) 235/35/19's and (R19x10) 265/30/19's, but I want and need a wider/taller setup. The tires right now are too thin and a bit too stretched, so I'm thinking of going 245/35/19's and 285/30/19's. Can you guys tell from the pictures if I'm going to run into any rubbing issues?

The back is pretty high, so I think it'll be okay....but the front is too low and will be raised back up about a half inch or so, and I'm hoping that'll be enough to clear the 245's? What do you guys think?

Any advice is appreciated, thanks!

Doesn't look like much of a stretch to me... on another note - what wheels are those? They look like Avant Garde M359, but I've never seen those in a 5x114.3?

SCWB

Using 245/35 front and 285/30 rear. If you raise your car by 0.5 inch, you might be able to get away with rubbing. Based on my experience, you will rub on the front with 245/35 and raised ride height. But the rubbing should be minor.

Are u rubbing with current tire setup? It will be better if you can tell the offset of the wheels.

SCWB

That's a good news for me. Thanks for your reply

If possible, please share more pics of your rear from side angles, Thanks.

How would my car handle if I ran...

Front: 19x9.5 +12
Rear: 19x10.5 +22

Would it be better to run 9.5s all the way around or 9.5/10.5 +22 all the way? I'm lowered on coilovers and this is my first time EVER looking into wheels so I'm just trying to figure out how aggressive of an offset this will be. Any input from Tire/Wheel gurus would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance
