Mind you this is -5.5* camber in the rear and almost 5.25" drop on coils. You will need to roll you fender completely flat, and shave the tab buys that's all in the rear and u won't need that much camber


Here is same offset but higher up

Thank you for all the pictures. I'm dropped on Road Magnet's which only drop 2 full inches. I think with 225/35/19 & 265/30/19 and a flat roll I should be good ?

Question continuation from yesterday,

so picked up rims with the specs:

19x8-1/2 +35 front
19x9-1/2 +42 rear

My ride is AWD, so naturally looked at 235/35 and 265/35. However it looks like 235/35 fits on the 19x9.5 too. My question then would be, is it okay to just run 235/35 all around then? Will there be much of a stretch on the 9.5 rim or minimal? Thanks in advance again!

Hey,

I have these wheels in mind and the specs are

Wheel Front: 18x8.5J OFF38
Wheel Rear: 18x9.5J OFF38

Would they run kinda flush? How would they fit on the car? I couldn't find any pictures of members with these specs.

Thanks in advance!

235/35-19 on a 19x9.5" is starting to stretch, but it'll be safe enough for daily driving.

look for other members w/ wheels in the mid 30's offsets.

make sure the wheels clear the brake calipers, but other than that they should fit just fine.

you can get the latter without fender mods. just make sure you are running narrower-width tires.

Hey guys.
I just got new wheels.
XXR 527
18x8.75 +20
18x9.75 +20
(You wouldn't believe how much of these wheels are on back order. I was all over the place for two weeks, and finally found a place that could get their hands on one. Seems like XXR are on backorder in the US for a while, at least for these XXR's)
I am going to wrap them in Nexen N3000
225/40/18
245/40/18

My question is, will I need any fender modifications? I removed some of the fender liners up front, and also cut my bumper tabs up front already. Never rolled and I really don't plan to, but if I have to, I will.
I am dropped on Tein SS coilovers, roughly 1.75 inchs from stock.
I plan to go lower, but not slammed.
Any suggestions?
I also didn't want to stretch crazy tires like I did with my LC818 ( 19x8.5 215/35/19 19x10 235/35/19) because of how much the wheels stick out of the tires, and rock chips damaging the very sides of the wheels.
Thanks CL

This is, by far, the most "flush-without-fender-mod" spec. Pair them with: Front 225/35/19 or 235/35/19 and 255/35/19 or 265/30/19 for the rear and you will be pretty flush with non-stretched look.

However, if you choose 235/35/19 with 19X8.5+30 you may run into fender tab rubbing problem if you are running at very low ride height. If you don't wanna risk rubbing or don't want to mod the fender, then go

19X8.5+30 with 225/35/19

OR

19x8.5 +35 with 235/35/19
