I might push the offset a little lower (perhaps down to +37-38) as people running 19"s with 235/35 have had rubbing issues with the inner (closer to the engine)fender liner. This will make the wheels stick out a little further though giving it a very aggressive stance.

looking at most of the setups and the flushness of the wheels the fronts should have mid-high 30s, rears might be ok

calipers fit fine as i did a test fit last week. but the test fit did not allow me to set the car down off the jack, no tires mounted on the rims yet. Maido GR5 3 pc.
