I am buying some new rims in the next 2 weeks. Going with the staggered, 19x8.5/9.5. What would be the best offset for a fender flush? I don't want them sticking out past the fenders or to far in. 32+ front and 35+ rear? Any advice?

 

By the way, its a 99 ls400.

 

front will be fine, might need to roll depending on the tire size, rear will be fine without any roll, and will be quite a ways in the fender.

what look are you trying to achieve, your description was lacking...

 

Thanks pure drifter. I am looking for in the fender. No rubbing. I don't want the fender sitting on the tire either. I don't want to roll any of the fenders. Thinking of 245/45r19 tires. I forget how the offset works. The higher the number, the farther the wheel sticks in? What would be the best offset?

 

Yeah I have +35 18x8.5 front (245/40) and +35 18x9.5 (285/40). I did have to modify the rear fenders to avoid rubbing. I am running wide sneakers though. Like Pure said, what are you trying to get?

 

I am going for a clean sporty flush look. Here is a pic of the wheels.

 

The offset on these is 35 all the way around. My car is pearl white with the lower being darker. Any opinions?

 

ehh not a fan of those wheels but that comes down to personal preference.

that tire size is way too big, you need a 245/35-19 or 245/40-19 at most.

rears with that offset should be 275/35-19 ish

 

I really like em! But my taste is off anyways, at least i get told that. Thanks for the info. I am also gonna lower the car and found some tannabe springs on ebay. Can I use my stock struts or do i need to replace those also?

 

stock struts will blow pretty quick on tanabes.

 

I have a 2000 LS with 19x8.5 front 19x9.5 rear, tire sizes are 245 40/19 and 275 35/19 with the stock suspension and they fit fine.

 

offsets ?

 

The offsets are +40mm front, +45mm rear.

 

yeah, even more conservative than the OP

op should be fine running the same sizes, front might need a roll at MOST.

 

They fit perfect, tires are right on the inside edge of the fenders. It was hard to find a wheel to clear my front brakes. I wanted them to be snug but not stick out past the fender.
