19X9.5 +30 Front and 19X10.5 +30 Rear on stock tires.
Front rubs over bumps, no rubbing for rear.
I could have gone little more aggressive in the rear.
On RSR Downs: F -1.0, R -0.8 Weds Maverick 1107T's: F 19 x 9.5 +26H, R 19 x 10.5 +29L; Continental Extreme Contact: F: 265/19/35, R: 295/19/35. Had to switch the front to OEM Spec since it was rubbing after pics taken, so 255/19/35.
hello all- I love to hear group wisdom here on a potential wheel setup. I have to admit, I am super naive on wheel specs and feeling like I passed the entire derivatives topic in calculus after reading all the posts.. I am good with staggered, in the end Toyota engineers should have done their homework (used to have 08 335xi many years before and though it eats tires for breakfast, it looked good, it handled good situation)
2020 RCF - current everything as stock. At this point no plans of changing suspension or height. only planned upgrade is the exhaust in addition to wheels.
Primary motivations - aesthetics / handling / cornering stability - weight
Wheel in question - Volk TE37 Ultra Track II
Option 1 - most likely:
Sizes - 19x10.5 5x114.3 22mm / 19x9.5 5x114.3 35mm (44mm available)
Tires - PS4s / thinking 275/35 F and 295/30 or 35 back (flexible on tire choice if better recommendation)
Option 2:
Sizes - 20x10.5 5x114.3 25mm (20x10 35mm or 41mm offset available) / 20x9.5 5x114.3 45mm
Tires - PS4s / thinking 275/30 F and 295/30 back
what do you guys think? highly appreciate your views & thanks a bunch!
Not really sure anyone answered this. I bought these same wheels, sizes - 19x10.5 5x114.3 22mm rear / 19x9.5 5x114.3 35mm front
Will 315/30/19 tires fit on the rear with stock suspension?
What about for the fronts, is 275/35/19 too much or should I stick with 265/35/19 up front?
Hopping over from the GSF forums since we have the same stock sizes and brake setups. I noticed a few of you are running 18s on your RCFs and wanted to check and see if anyone has any clear recommendations for 18s that will clear the brakes all around. Also, I think one or two users had 18s that only cleared by 2-3mm, so wanted to see if any of you ever ran into problems with it. Based on searches, I found that Volk TE37s and some Forgeline models are the best bet, but didn't see much definitive for long-term use.
I both love me some meaty sidewall and, with recent flats, a little extra sidewall wouldn't hurt.

For 18s we're limited to quality forged wheels. Forged have good barrel clearance. I'm running Apex forged for the track in their 18x10 +40 size.
Rays, Advan, and maybe Titan7 are other options I've seen on Instagram on an RCF in 18 inch sizes.
Enkei RPF1 in 18 don't clear, I tried to test fit those at the track off a friend's ISF.

Like @LoSt180 said, stick with high quality forged lightweight wheels, lightweight because you know it has the least material especially on the barrel area. 10 +40 is probably the highest offset you’d want, but if you’re going with 9.5”, choose your offsets wisely, maybe +35 offset high limit) Avoid even high quality flow formed wheels unless you’ve verified clearance, those will tend to have more material and could interfere with the calipers. Choose wheels with the most concave spoke designs given the offset and width you’re going with.
Thank you for the feedback already! It seems like nobody in the GSF world has ventured into the realm of 18s.
I was specifically looking at forged-only options based on some of the earlier comments on this thread. I was playing around on the Meraki Autoworks website and, sorting by forged 18" with the right bolt pattern, got quite a few options. On a quick look, the Advan RS-DF Progressive and the Advan RZ-F2 both caught my eye. Not sure if you all have experience with either one. (update: per another website for the Progressive, "The RS-DF Progressive adopted the same rim form as the GT-18-inch, a racing rim profile that can accept braking systems with up to 400mm rotors")
In terms of sizing, does it make sense to keep a staggered fitment (OEM is 19x9 in front and 19x10 in back, so it would be 18x9 and 18x10) or go square?
Lastly, in terms of offset, I would like to stick as close to stock as possible, but understand that might not be possible with aftermarket wheels. With a quality forged wheel would such an offset cause problems in general? I would obviously check with the manufacturer first before going ahead with a purchase.
Thanks again,

after pics taken, so 255/19/35.
