Default Calling All Work Varianza Owners - Please Read

I just ordered a set of:

Work Varianza T1S
(2) 19x8.5(F) +36 Offset R-Disc
(2) 19x9.5(R) +38 offset O-Disc

I'm going to run

235x35x19
275x35x19 Toyo T1R's on the car.

I haven't lowered the car (yet). I will put the rims on the car without lowering first to see how much it needs to be lowered, then do so accordingly.

So my question is: 1) Will I have any rubbing issues especially with 275's in the rear? If not, will I have any rubbing issues once the car is lowered roughly 1" (Eibach's).

Also, I know the TPMS does not work with these rims without being altered. Has anyone actually made them work with this rim?

Also if anyone has any general advice on this rim, please let me know. I was slighly dissapointed I will only have 1.5" lip in front, if anyone got a bigger lip, please let me know which offsets you ran.

Thanks!

19x8.5 +36
19x9.5 +36

Toyo T1R

No rubbing and I am slammed.

Hope that helps.

I don't use the TPMS because I got it working in the spare tire.

Its gana be close rick with that 275. Just depends on how big those Toyos run. When i had 265, it was close, but had about a finger gap.

Okay I'm gonna go ahead and get 265's to be safe then. Thanks.


cspec, got any pictures? And how much lip did you end up getting? I was quoted about 38mm front, 76mm back (1.45" and 2.99")
