Default Need help with offsets for wheels

Purchasing work vs-xx step lips 19" . It was recommend by vendor for flush setup 19x9.5 22 and 19x10.5 22. Looking at some pics and threads, that may be too aggressive for me, as I want flush and some poke but not much. I was thinking 19x9 34 and 19x10.5 39 instead. I have rolled fender rears and fronts on coils. Can someone confirm this for me? Thanks.

The vender quoted offsets are very aggressive and likely would need a stretched tired, a good amount of camber, and a fender roll. 19x9 +35 & 19x10.5 +45 provides a nice flush look without tire stretch, fender mods and camber if you have decent drop. So you're on the right track if you want a little poke.

+22 is mild aggressive. People run that setup with minor fender roll. I almost got that setup. I know someone running +28 all around and it sits very clean no poke but not flush. Anything higher offset of +35 will look funny how itll tuck inside the fender more, especially if your going to lower on coils. Yes you do need to stretch tires. But only minor stretch. 225/35/19 - 235/35/19

so this is the setup that i have on order.

19x9.0 +34mm R Disk Front
19x10.5 +32mm A disk Rear

should that be good?

also, looking at the work wheel site. they have the O disk 10.5 + 39 as 87mm rim depth and also have the A disk 10.5 + 32mm as 87mm rim depth. would that be the same lip size?

Whatever you do, be sure to "test fit" your wheels for fitment before mounting the tires and virtually no wheel manufacturer accepts returns of wheels once tires have been mounted.

All places with special ordered wheels including our shop will not return wheels even after the order has been placed to Japan.

So need to make sure the sizings are what you want before you order. And yeah O-Disk will clear the rear no problem. So I would go with that.

Take a look at this thread, it should give you an idea. The silver 2is has 9”+35 and 10.5” +45. He only had the rear fenders rolled a bit.

Thanks for the pics. i decided to finally go with 10.5 +26 in the rear. if your +42 is almost flush, then another 16mm should hopefully do the trick. What tire size are you running? 255/35?

I think +43-45 would be flush...so +26 might be farther away from being flush, but I'm not positive. That's right 255/35..pretty mild stretch

Thanks, since your fenders are not rolled and mine is, i think that should clear at least 12mm. i do not mind a little camber since i already have camber links. i just didnt want to get something higher and not be where i wanted it to be. also, getting +26 gives the rear a bigger lip size.

Gotcha! Make sure to post some pics when the wheels/tires come in, curious to check it out! I'm sure it will look sick!
