Default What offset/tire size for 19's on an AWD??

I am slightly confused on the right tire size and offest I will need to put a set of TSW Nogaro's on my IS250 AWD. If someone could help me out, that would be great.

By the Way...

19x8 - Front
19x9.5 - Rear

I don't believe getting a staggered set up is an option for AWD, but if it helps on mine 8.5 front +35 offset, 9.5 rear +40 offset 19".

It is an option for AWD, all you have to worry about is that the overall width to be the same. Just contact D2autosport they are a vendor here and they can hook you up.

9.5 will rub... i believe even 8.5 on the front should be ok without having to roll ur fenders... just stretch ur tires

stock offset is about+45 right now... so i think u should go with +38 offset or u'd have to get spacers to not be tucked... cause right now im tucked pretty badly...

also i dont understand why people get staggered wheels for an AWD.


oh and stock from the dealership... going staggered is not an option... they all come with stock 17s all around... i think ?

Hey man nice speaking to you yesterday, as I said on the phone, the staggered AWD issue has been discussed ad nauseam. The verdict will be yours to come to, please let me know if you need the wheels, they are in stock.

There is a sticky thread about wheel set up.
That might help you.
As far as I know, you can use any set up on your AWD that can be used on IS250/350 RWD.
