i just bought them and i want to see how many people already have them or ordered them. I ordered gunmetal for my grey sc. What did everyone else order. Will i have problems with these sizes on my sc? the fronts are 19x8.5 245x35x19 is the tire size and the back is 19x9.5 275x30x19 please respond quick so if they would rub i can change my order. Thanks a lot guys. With a offset of 36 i believe. =x deep dish!

I just ordered a set of Volk Racing SF Challanges. I ordered 19X9 up front and 19X10 in there rear. they should be here in about 3 months. Just in time for NOPI. There Black with a polished lip which is a custom color. They should be pretty hot, I just can't wiat to see them on my white SC

my friend just ordered a set of gt-n's the other day in black too with a polished lip. i'm sure it will look hot. hey u know wherei can get hid's for a good price? I'm talking about changing everything the whole headlight. Mine is fogged up bad.. and it's a little cracked. What offset did u get? I got 36

36 will probably rub. i have 18x9 (+38) in the rear and they rubbed after i lowered. i hope you're getting a good deal...if not, i know someone who can get you a deal on volks. just let me know.

mrshabo

damn. if they rub i'm screwed. I ordered the rims a while ago. There is no eta on it's arrival but i put a G deposit on it. How will they look if i don't lower it. Or if i lower it just a bit?

whats up guys! can you guys help me out? well my girl friend's brother just bought a set of brand new volks gtc today...and he wants to trade me for my 19' manarays, would you guys do it? mine are 19x8 in front and 19x9 in the rear tires are new w/ 95% tread left...his 19x81/2 f and 19x91/2 r tires are brand new! i mean he just put them on 3 hours ago...oh...and they are gunmetal. thanks for any input. he wants to come by tomarrow to put them on my car to help me decide.

mrshabo

i don't know too much about rims (i don't know what manray's are) i'm assuming they are the rims in your sig. I think they both look great. I would take the gtc cause they are newer u know =x. Which one has the deeper lip? What tire size did your friend get? Anyone know for sure if my setting will rub or not? I am runinng 19's and the fronts are 245x35 and the back is 275x30. Please only definate answers. I have to change my order quick if they are going to rub.

if i were you, i would go with a supra fitment. i believe the offsets are near 45 or so.

joey, i would stick with the manarays. they're more unique. gtc's look great, but they are so common now. the manarays look great on your car anyways.

here are the rear gtn's:

with 45's wouldn't that be even bigger? Sorry dunno much about tires/rims. I know that my offset is 36 as in the lip size. I want the super deep dish though. I don't think the deep dish would make it rub though would it? I'm not gonna lower the car. It should fill in the gap perfectly no?

i ran on 275's for a few weeks with my current wheels and they rubbed a lot. this was before i lowered. when i switched to 265's the rubbing went away, but when i lowered the car, the rubbing came back, so i decided to shave my fenders.

the lower offset will give you the deeper lip, but the lower you go, the more the chances of rubbing. the main measurement of offset is not how deep the lip is. do a search in the wheels forum for a good definition. like i said, my rear is 18x9 (+38) and they rubbed under certain conditions. I'm not exactly sure how different a 9.5, +36 would be, but I would think it would rub as well, and maybe a little more.

if you go with a supra fitment, i'm sure you will be happy with the result. btw, the picture is of my shaved fenders. the angle is kinda wierd.

mrshabo

hrm if what your saying is correct then i'm def gonna rub. Your running 18's with 275's and your rubbing already. if i run 19's with 275's i'm in deep ****. How much did shaving your fenders cost?

the guys at the shop told me it was $25/side. i opened my wallet in front of them and showed that i only had $36 and i needed both rears done...and they agreed to do it.

i think the gtc's has a little more lip in the rear. i dont know about the front. im with you, i just dont want it rubbing. as the sayin goes...if it an't broke...dont fix it. but i really do like them both. maybe i'll just do both, a different set on each side! j/k i like my manarays because they are not common, and on the other hand i like the gtc's just because they are gun metal. i'll sleep on it and try them on in the morning. BTW im running 245/35/19 in f and 275/30/19 in r right now and they dont rub. i had to get my fenders rolled tho...good luck with yours, hope your dont rub either.
