I have 19x8s with a 45 offset...but I have 5mm spacers in the front and 15mm spacers in the rear. So 40f/30r dropped on S. Techs with no problems. Infact I wish I would have went with the 8.5" wide wheels.

There was a Maxima with 19x9.5 with Enkei Aegis. I believe those come with 45mm offset, so he must have used wheel spacers. I myself are going to put 19x9.5 wheels with 35mm offset at the back and I'll let everyone know how they'll fit.

Where did you get your 5mm spacers? I might get some for the rears if they dont look right..... They run about $80 right?

Yeah, but what can I do? I fell in love with those wheels. At most, I'd just have to trim or hammer away my fender for a little bit.

When you say they're gonna rub, you mean the front or the back or both?

You can get wheel spacers here: www.optauto.com

~limsandy

What type of wheels are you getting? That sounds like its going to be a sick setup. I'd have to say from my fairly small knowledge of offset vs. width that it will just fit without rubbing. And even if you do have to trim it a little, who cares by the sounds of it your going to have one hell of a nice setup.

Thanks, Hamy. I guess nobody knows for sure if my wheels are going to rub or not, since no one has reported having those sizes.

That will not work. You'll need something like 40-45 offset in the back, and even then it might rub depending on your drop and certain driving conditions. That wide of a wheel def won't work in the front...

Could I fit a 19x8 rim with a 20mm offset? I know 20 is really low, but it's only 8" wide. I'm running 235/35s.

Yeah Nathan has those, but I'm just trying to find another wheel because they're going to be on backorder for a really long time. The TSW Thruxtons come in 40 and 20mm offsets and I was wondering if I could squeeze in the 20. I'm not sure how these clear big calipers, but I just ran across them tonight and it made me wonder. They're also like $400 cheaper than the Hiros. I could get the Hiros in silver right now, but I want the grey finish.

I'm running 19x8.5" 35mm offset front & rear.

Fronts are perfectly flush with fender, rear still has about 20-25mm of extra space. The best size would be a 19x9.5" with a 40-45mm offset in the rear.

Yes....with a 275/30/19. It would rub with people in the back. But I never ran 4 people with those wheels so it wasn't an issue.

I might do that setup w/ 19x8.5 35mm offset front and 19x10.5 35mm offset rear. I hope i don't have any issues w/ volk racing rims. Also what size tire are you running in the rear?
