Im trying to find a good wheel setup before I order.

I was looking at some Volk GTS
19x8.5 +24
19x10.5 +28

Im looking for a flush as possible fitment when lowered with a stretch and roll.
What are your thoughts on these offsets? Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Here's an example of
F: 18x9; offset +24; tire size 255/35/18; fenders rolled
R: 18x10; offset +22; tire size 265/35/18; fenders rolled

19x10 +29 245/35/19 Toyo's trimmed/cut rear fenders


And hear's a rear angle shot...

rexnico thanks for the pic of that 18x9 24m and 18x10 22

that's exactly the setup i'm looking at, i'm just worried about the tires that come on it front are 245/40 so i'm almost 110% i'm gonna have to roll fenders as low as my car is as well..

thanks though

I don't think that would be flush.

I have a friend selling a set of Asanti 20" wheels for $500 with tires. I want to buy them but want to know if anyone knows if they will fit. They are 20X8.5 in the front and they are 20X11 in the rear. Anyone please let me know there opinion asap, as I want to get them tommorrow, and rather not drive 45 minutes away and putting them on to find they dont fit. Thanks

You need the offset and tire size to know if they will fit.

An 11 will be tight in the rear.

hey all, I have seen alot of rims sizes close to what I am looking to buy but when it comes the the offset only a few have covered the the question that I have. I was not able to see all the pages but so far I know that a 19X8.5 with a 45 offset can fit the front and tuck easy. Now what is still bothering me is if a 19x10 with a 22 offset can tuck the rear with only a fender roll The first page does say"you can go as low as +38 on a 10” wide wheel in the rear without any fender modifications and as low as +22 on a 10” wide wheel with your fenders rolled. your tire size plays a big role here." I am a noob to lexus, my last modded car was a 2000 celica gt that had 17x7.5 and 35 all around, so staggering is new to me and I am not sure about the tire stretching....

the width of the wheel has less to do with the offset than the tire width... 275's will need +35 and rolled fenders on, say a 10" wide wheel... whereas a 245 on the same wheel should be ok without rolled fenders...

I run 275/30-19 on 9.5" wheels with +35 offset and have about 5mm of room between the fender and the tire with close to stock camber - yes, alignment plays a part - the more negative camber you run, the more room you have for a wider tire / lower offset...

I saw that posted earlier, but I have not seen anyone with a 22 offest, that is what is bothering me. The rims I want are the tenzo type-m version2 in bronze. If it is possible does anyone know another company that make the same design?
