Which brand are you thinking about? Seems like many would be available through vendors here with less worry IMO.

I am about to install some Rays,
19x9.5 et 40 up front
And 19x 10.5 et 23 rears.
Stock height.
Am I going get away with 295/30 or 305/30 rears or be relegated to 285s
Want to do 275/30 up front.
Thx in advance.

Dont know if you already have everything purchased or not. Please go with what you feel is best, but just some info sharing.

Yes a 295 or 305 works on the rear just fine. The problem you might run in to is the offset of that wheel with that size tire. A +23 is aggressive for the rear on a 10.5. I run a 20x11 +40 with a 295 PS4 and you will stick out about 10mm more than me with a 295/30 because of your offset. I sit almost flat faced flush with the fender well now. I am pretty low on Penske coils, but to run a +23 id have to bring my car up quite a bit to not rub. My specs are below if interested.

20x9.5 +28
20x11 +40
265/30 295/30 Michelin PS4's

Question for anyone who can answer. A shop is telling me to go with 255/35/20 on a 20x9. However my car is lowered on swift springs and thinking the 35 might rub. I was going to switch to 255/30/20.

To match the stock 255/35/19, you would need 255/30/20

Well to tell you the Truth, I Would Not want to have to wipe down EVERY Spoke on BOTH sides of these wheels times FOUR Wheels! I Guess to each his Own & I Probably Don't want to know the $$$$$ Tag that comes with them! To ME, I've never seen ANY wheels that cost 4-5k $$$$$ that look That much Better than my 10 spoke OEM black chrome ones (not to mention they're SO Easy to clean). JMO

I put 255/30/20 on my front 9” wide rims and the tires cracked pretty fast like if the car was too heavy for a 30 series profile. Tires were hankook v2s so maybe that was the problem.

Hankook V2...or V12? And that size tire for the front on a 9in wheel should not have given you any issues.

What Members have gone to an aftermarket Staggered 19" Wheel and switched over their Stock Rubber - 255/35/19 & 275/35/19? Despite all those "Configurators" we've all played around with online, Ive struck out on 3 Brands because the "Drop Center" will not clear our Calipers.

I ask this because I just had some horrible luck w beautiful Ace Alloys in a 20" setup and had to buy a new Wheel & Tire to replace the Right Front. Was thinking of posting them in Marketplace for sale but have seen people get knocked around on pricing like they fought Mike Tyson! 😳

I would stand firm in your asking price. Considering you drive an RCF and have done premium upgrades to it I doubt money is a factor and you are probably not in a position to sell your wheels right now. Assuming you are not selling them for what you paid then whomever buys them will be getting a deal so I would not budge....if they have to sit in your garage for awhile so be it.

V12 tires sorry about that typo they were the latest model and the rim was 20x9. And yes both sides started cracking.

GunnyFitz

Would have to answer...No to the 1st statement, wish I could agree w those who say "Money doesn't buy happiness" but I cant!

On the 2nd statement - The Brand New Wheel and Tire arrived today, so the set is now complete and for sale for the right price. (No idea what that'll be yet) but I know up front I will never come close to getting a fraction of whats into them. Hell, I went ahead and Ceramic Coated them all for Free just to help em move!
Was told that getting 70% of their original cost is fair to both parties, though w the new wheel & tire I'll be upside down regardless. We shall see. If ya know anyone who "may" be interested send them my way please!

OOH-RAH!

Kerune

Wait how come you're selling if you have the 4th wheel back? Did you already replace it with a new set?

If chrome wheels suited my gray rcf better I'd look into it more.

GunnyFitz

Yes, the brand new 20" Ace Alloy in "Black Chrome", shod w brand new Michelin PS4S arrived yesterday. The other 3 Wheels have all been meticulous cleaned and Ceramic Coated. No charge.

I'd like to sell the entire set because I'm what's called a "Fortune Teller" when it comes to "Distorted Cognitions" (Seriously, that's what it's called too-lol) and what I forsee is that I'll be right back in the same situation again w a dented wheel and ruined tire to replace due to the incredibly brutal potholes within the whole Metro DC, MD, VA area. I'd rather take a loss on the sale to help get me into a set of 19" wheels - which has proven to be extremely unsuccessful since no one makes a staggered set of 19s that clear the brake calipers on the RCF (Except Lexus of course!)
