you could run these offsets without rubbing*

front: 19x8.5 +23 offset *requires some heat gunning of the wheel well
rear: 19x9.5 + 27 offset *requires fender rolling, also note you may be able to go out another 5mm or so
*a further note is these will require a somewhat stretched tire - 225's in the front and 245's in the rear.
you wont be able to run these offsets with gygantoid 275 tires.

Would these Dynas clear other BBK like Brembo or Stoptech?

That's funny. A car as heavy as the 2IS should be running 315s on all four corners. But that would be a mechanical performance mod, not a visual performance mod.

thanks mdgrwl. What if I'm going with 19" 8.5 offset +35 235/35 (front) 19" 9.5 offset +45 265/35 (rear). Will I encounter any problems such as rubbing, flushing, etc?

+1 can't wait to get an answer from Zoeb as well.

This is the question I posted....how will we know BBK will fit aftermarket wheel? I'm not a wheel expert but I'm certain it can easily be determined by the offset. The lower the offset +28, the more space you have between the rotors and spoke.

Default 19x9.5's up front???

Right now I'm running an 19x8.5 up front with a 225/35/19 tire.
I wanted to bump it up to a 19x9.5 with a 235/35/19 tire - will this cause any issues/rubbing since its wider, i.e inside of wheel well?

right now I'm not rubbing with my setup btw...


thanks!

calviin has 19x9.5 up front. it rubs with any lowering, but he's on bags so it doesn't rub too much when driving

well calviin also rubbs because of his crazy offsets and being super dumped.
i'm not a low as he is and my offsets arent' as aggressive as his... just wondering if having 1 more inch of wheel on the inside of the wheel well makes a difference when turning ect...

ovbiously going in a straight line wouldn't be a problem, but what about when cutting the wheel, is 9.5 too wide up front?
