I'm planning to get a set of the S5:F rims real soon in 19x8.5 all around with offsets 30 rear and 35 front. Tires are undecided, but will go stretched if rubbing becomes a problem. (235/35/19?) I drive an AWD, and am planning to drop it on S-techs once I get them.

Question is will my setup rub with s-techs? or should I just keep them lowered on my current NF210s?


My goal is to have a setup as aggressive as possible without any fender mods, rubbing, and coilovers (can't afford these yet).

Thanks for the feedback and help guys!

 

sounds fine to me . . . but i'd go stretched anyhow with 215/35-19 or something

 

yea only problem is the roads here r real crappy. full of potholes n bumps.

 

move to texas =P

You'll forget what snow is =)

 

if i was gonna head down to the states to live, i'd go SoCal hands down. parts galore there ...

 

Five Axis used my car for fitment testing for the S5:F wheels. Unless they recently added some different offsets, I don't believe they have an offset of +35 for that wheel size. However, you should be fine with the +30 offsets with 235/35 tires. My current set up is 19x8.5 (+30) with 235/35 in front and 19x9.5 (+35) with 265/30 in rear. Your rears should clear easily. Mine clears by 2 mm with my set up. As for the front, I needed to slightly modify the plastic inner lining with a heat gun...not a big deal. BTW, I'm dropped on S-techs. You'll love the wheels...I do

hmm.. ur on the RWD.. the s-techs would have dropped it a bit more for you than it would on my AWD. The +35 offset r on the 19x.9.5. Do you have any pics you could send me? Thanks

 

Here are a couple of pics. You'll be fine with the 19x8.5 (+30) in the rear.

 

nicee, using ur pics at reference when i order them.
thanks bro.
