19x8.5 (f) +43
19x9.5 (r) +45

I know these will fit, but are they too weak? I don't want HELLAFLUSHNESS (I'm not the type that slams and gets huge wheels), but want a good looking stance. I hate that my stockers are so sunken in. Will these be sunken in as well?

wike if you want a nice stance that would need to be +33 front and +35 rear. those will be sunken in. and with the 30 offsets you wont need to mod your fenders either.

What about 19x10+8 in the rear with a 275. That's fender suicide, isn't it?

thats would be about 8mm more aggressive than this

your gunna have to pull about 10mm on the fender, then run a 235/35 or a 255/30 if you want more tire

I don't understand why people would buy wheels then get spacers to correct the way it looks. Except if the wheels aren't able to have custom offsets.

i wish i could answer that for you, but i wasnt even sure about what my 20's offsets were for sure.
the front was roughly a +32 20x8.5 225/35/20(should have gone 225/30)
rear was roughly a +35 20x10 245/35/20
eibach 250 springs on my is350

Default Newb needs a lil help

MV350...u seem to be the one with the answers and I am sure this has already been addressed but I am looking at 19X8.5 and 19X9.5 with offsets of +35. What would be the best size tires to get without modification/rubbing issues? I plan on BC coils as well with about a finger gap (daily driver). ANy help would be appreciated as I am deployed (US Air Force) and would like to purchase them before I come back to the states. Thanks man

235/35 rear 215/35 front you should be fly. might be able to run a 245/35 or 255/30 in the rear if you dont like the stretched look

Thanks for the quick response....yeah, definitely not a fan of the stretched look (just not my style) so 215 in the front (wld 225 big too big?) and 245, 255 rear...I like the "fat" rear tire so I might opt for the 255/30. Thanks again, I really do apprecite it

from my understanding, running stretch tires is not a look but rather a necessity in order to run the most aggressive offset possible. the stretch will allow you to drive the car lower and turn without ripping out your fender.
