In my opinion, 9 inch width with +30 offset in the front and 10 inch width +26 offset for the rear is the best.
That would be perfect w/o rubbing even when droped.

I think these will be my next wheels. (Assuming these are Work Euroline FE's.)
I think 19's would be safer than 20's, to leave a little more sidewall for Mom. I think 9's and 10's would be safest, but can I squeeze 10.5's in there with CS's in with out of the box height settings? And if I want to run 255/35 and 285/30's would 30 be the best offset for both?
Just have to wait to wear out the current 18" tires and then convince myself to spend the $$ on her car.

running 19s and 20s are the same, if you run overspec tires on the 20s (35 front and 30 rear profile). that's what a lot of people including me do. that's fine
and 10.5? come on man, you have to follow more closely i have been running 10.5 on my sc430 for a yr!!!
and in fact, fitting 11 or even 11.5 is no problem on the sc430, just with the right offset, even when lowered a lot

So with 10's and 11's aren't 245's going to be stretched? I would like to stick with the Pilot Sport A/S and that seems like the only size in that tire that will still allow a decent amount of sidewall without getting too far out of spec.
And I just realized they don't make the FE in a 20....
And what about handling? The car already understeered with the sway bars set at middle stiff. I put the rear on full stiff but haven't pushed it since...
There's always the LS 406 (for VIP Style) But I'm not really a fan.
