Looking to change the wheels on my car from a staggered fitment to the same size all the way around.

The wheels I want come in 19x9 +35 or +20. Wondering which of these I should get for a flush look and what size tires I should get without having too much stretch. Car is already rolled..

I have a 19x9 +37 on my front (+52 with 15mm spacer) and it is not flush at all (if we are going by the new lingo for that term).

Nice setup

Posting the wheel widths, offset, and fender mods would be helpful to other members looking to run as wide of a tire.

Default What size rims should I purchase?

Hey all, I’m new to the site and this is my first post. I have been reading this thread for a while now and still have some questions about offset in particular. I have 215/55R16 tires and I am looking to replace my OEM chrome wheels because they were peeling real bad when I bought the car. I would love to get some aftermarket wheels but I don’t know what size rims to buy. I would not like to roll my fenders or change anything else about my car but I would like the sportier look. What rim size should I be looking for? 16x8, 16x9? How about offset? +25 +35? Remember I’m very new to all of this and am having trouble. I will most likely be installing coil overs and lowering the car a little bit at some point in the future.Thank you for any help you can offer!

Go with minimum 17" wheels (i would recommend 18"). Also, if you plan on keeping the car, consider spoke clearance as you would also probably want to do an LS400 brake caliper upgrade eventually.

TE37SL 18X10 +40 all around (will be sunken in a little bit, but perfect for guys trying to run a full size tire)
Front: 245/40/18 Bridgestone RE71R, -1.7 degrees of camber, fronts are rolled flat
Rear: 275/35/18 Bridgestone RE71R -2.5 degrees of camber, rears are shaved

Tires could easily be increased to 255/40/18 and 285/35/18

Did this work out? I run 20x10 +40 in the rear and 20x8.5 +38. I am looking at some 20x10.5 +20 and 20x9 +20 or +35.
