I am wondering if a 20" is selected over a 19" due to caliper issues. Can anyone tell me if the 20" is selected over a 19" due caliper clearance issues or is this not an issue at all?
Thanks

The size of your wheel wont matter at all in terms of caliper clearance. It’s your wheel offset and disk type that matters. FWIW I have Work 20”x9+32 Atype front wheels and they clear the caliper with room to spare.

I don't know if manufacturers other than Work use a "disk type" designation. For gdog5149, Work wheels has a specification for the inside of the wheel where the caliper is to account for larger aftermarket calipers.

Unless you buy Work wheels, you'll probably only need to worry about offset, but you should talk to someone at the wheel company regarding caliper clearance, especially if you drive an F-sport with the larger caliper.

Yeah it's your offset and shape of spokes.

It depends on the wheel design and the offset. I recently purchased a 18 inch Niche Targa Rim with +40 offset and that did not clear the calipers

all manufacturers have some type of disk type, they just call it different things. for example, Volk calls their high mid and low
