I'm trying to find correct fitment for my RC350 F Sport AWD. Will these fit my car?

For AWD its better to have run a nonstaggered setup.

So 20x8.5+33 in front and back.

Idea why it is better nonstaggered for all wheel drive? thinking of doing mine 20x9 +32
20x10.5 +45 not sure if it will cause an issue like rubbing or what not

if your wheel/tire diameter is different then you'll mess up your diff because the front will rotate at a different rate from the rear

Im on 19x10 19x11.5 rotiforms and awd. Tire size with 0% variance would be 235/35 and 275/30, same sidewall height and for my particular wheels same exact stretch.

Leon ordit in those sizes wont clear the brakes up front. My friend has them on his rc and needed big spacers due to the front caliper pertrusion

so if i run with this set up, i will have issue then?

20x9/10.5 245/35/20 front 275/30/20

Thanks for the useful input brotha... 🙄

I hate to say it, but CL has been the least useful car enthusiast forum I've been part of to date. Every other car forum I've been to had gobs of knowledge and expert advice.

Thank you to GetURWheel and Josh for your advice.

There are a lot less RC owners than say BMW E36 owners may be the reason why there is less people to share knowledge on this enthusiast forum. I just sold my 911 Turbo and there was plenty of people to share advise on those forums, because of the larger base. If you haven't noticed there's not a lot of RCs out there....and that's one reason I like the car. Driving around I see more GTRs than RCs, but that's just my anecdotal experience.

That being said, I have an RC 350 AWD and had inquired about a similar question, as I was recently looking for wheels. I went with 19 x 8.5 with a +35 offset and they fit very nice. I could have gone to as much as a +25 offset, based on results and input from forum members here. I put snow tires on my stock wheels when the car was less than a month old, so I had a pretty much new set of rubber that had come off the car and so I was looking to utilize those tiers with some new wheels. I looked around and ended up getting a pretty good deal on the rims that I found, I was not looking for black but am satisfied with the results.

TBH - I think that dychang174 was being kind by stating ' not my cup of tea'. If you are looking for advice I would advise to not put those on your RC.... but hey ... it's your car and your money so if you think that's the way to go then give it a shot. You will need wheel spacers and tinted windows so that nobody sees you .....

I asked for advice regarding specs. The only reason I posted pics is because someone asked me to. I couldn't care less about opinions on the actual look of those wheels. Your all black wheels aren't my thing... so what? Did you ask my opinion on them? No you didn't. Did I make a subtle insult to you as you did to me? No, because I'm not seeking acceptance or trying to make others feel less than me because of their taste. I'm asking for knowledge.

You did however give info on the specs of your wheels, so at least I have a picture reference for that, so thank you.

I wasn't looking for black wheels, nor am I generally a fan. I got a good deal and bought them (again, based on information I received on this forum) and am surprised that I ended up liking them. I didn't get them tattooed on my forehead, they can easily be changed. No, I am not a fan of the style that you have there and my opinion on that is worth as much as you paid to hear it. But, I would like to see what wheels you end up getting and how they look, I've been wrong before.

There is good information on this forum, and maybe not getting the answer you want in a couple of days is worth getting pissy about. But probably not.

Well, I've posted a few threads asking for help with different things like suspension and wheels without getting responses or real help with guidance. I've searched the forums on my own for knowledge without much luck. The only real useful advice I've gotten is in another thread from GetURWheel... so maybe they'll GetMyBusiness. Ha

As far as my being pissy I do sincerely apologize for that. Frustration gets the better of me sometimes.

Look at the entitlement on this guy. You asked for advice regarding a staggered setup on an awd rc350. I told you it's not a good idea unless overall wheel/tire diameters are equal. Someone even posted what wheel/tire size you should get if you want to run staggered while maintaining the same diameter. As far as I'm concerned, your question has been answered to the fullest. What more do you want? Should I go over to your house and give you a lesson on how cars work? Maybe you should do a bit of research on your own before demanding for help. Google is a wonderful resource.
