245/35-19 will stretch more on a 10.5 than 9.5.

19x8. 19x10. 38/43. 235/35 265/30. Will those specs rub? Will probably be lowered on Megan coilover, not slammed but just get rid of some of the wheel gap.

I know it badly needs a drop , just want to enjoy the "rubbing-less" ride for a while



Looks great! A.C. Just need a drop to finish the job.

Do you know what is the offset?

you might need to roll the fronts with 20's and remove the front tab but itll work. roll/shave rears, either way

Ok got 2 options for my rear wheels
255/40/18 is the tire with a 18x9 wheel

Offset is either 28 or 38
I am running 38 now with my other set of wheels but wondering if maybe I can run 28 safely.
I'm rolled in the rear and lowered with no finger gap. I never ever rub but would the 28 cause rubbing? I have adjustable arms in the back so I can dial more negative camber if needed.


so 28 or 38 what you think?

I posted same question in aggressive wheel thread, apologize if I went to wrong thread.

On megan coilovers, thinking of 18x9.5 +22 and 18x10.5 +22 on 215/40 and 235/40 DWS with rolled fenders.

Let me know if this works without any camber mods or pulling!

ET28 will be perfectly fine, especially for the rear.

Highly suggest rolling and slightly pulling rear fenders. Not sure how the Conti DWS's stretch but some tires run narrow which helps with clearance. Some tires grab on to the rim of the wheel, posing some rubbing issues.

It also depends on how aggressively you are dropped. If you are slammed, then you might want to invest in camber kits. But you might be able to get away with those wheel and tire specs without an aggressive drop.

Sounds like you're getting a set of Vossen CV3s.

I recommend a 35 series tire for the fronts, which, will be no problem but the rear will be difficult as it is also 20" in diameter.. so make sure you get a soft tire. Those sizes should work though.

will not work without fender mods, but will work without camber mods.

sidewall is relatively upright w/ a 255 on a 9"-wide wheel. you might be able to get away with it with more camber.
