Default Quick Help

I read through the 15 pages, of the wheels section, and am more stumped now lol, seriously though I intend to go with 19x8 and 19x9.5, I used the tire calculator but forgot the tire sizes, but anyways what is the most acceptable offset used? I have the sport pack and the 18's stock if that helps. I just need to know, cause in the wheel section it varies from set up to set up, but what is the average offset, I will be lowering on eibachs as well.

From what I've seen, most of the Isx50 owners are running offsets in the 35-40 range. The lower the number, the more the wheel pushes out towards the fender.

AH I see, so would a 36-37 be the happy medium then?

why not go to 19X8.5 up front? Most people using this size are running offsets of anywhere from +36 to +42. I think this combo will make the wheels more flush to the fender
