Wheel offset

I have a 2011 sport and would like to offset my factory 19s to be more flush with the fenders. Are there any adverse affects to doing this? Are you sacrificing ride quality or anything else? Also what size offset do the majority recommend.
Thanks in advance

You'll need spacers. 20mm front and 25mm rear should bring them pretty close to the fenders.

Get your stock specs and plug them into a fitment/offset calculator for some measurements, and then go compare them visually yourself with a ruler or measuring tape. From there, you'll have a good idea of what size spacers to buy to get your wheels out to where you want them.

Of the calculators listed here:

The offsets that most run with are +25mm in the rear and +20mm in the front. There should be no adverse effects other than a wider stance.
