Most Aggressive offset

I'm in the market for some new set off rims. I narrowed it down to two types of rims Gold SF-Challenge and Gold SF-Winnings. My question to you'll is what is the most aggressive offset a 4th gen can use on 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rear. I will also roll my fenders if needed. Any help would be great.

Thanks

It depends on what size tire you are going to use. Wider tires will severly limit your choices.

You're gonna have to go with narrower tires. 235/35 up front on the 8.5", and 255/35 on the 9.5" rears.

If you go with the SF Challenges, you need 19x8.5 Offset Type "A" +34mm with rim depth of 50mm for the front, and 19x8.5 Offset Type "B" 36mm with rim depth of 69mm for the rear.
For the SF Winning's (which IMO are not as nice) you will need 19x8.5 Offset Type "A" +38mm with rim depth of 36mm for the front, and 19x9.5 Offset Type "B" +42mm with rim depth of 55mm for the rear. These wheels are heavier, and will have a smaller lip, so stick with the first ones.

Thank you so much. Yea I think I'm going to go with the Challenges they were my first choice so I guess I'll stick with that. So I would need 19x8.5 offset type "A" +34mm w/235/35tires up front and 19x9.5 Offset Type "B" +36mm w/ 255/35tire on the rears.

Thanks again

245's won't fit right in the front with those offsets, since you want aggresive offset and more lip. 275's will hardly fit, and would require a wheel with much higher offset to avoid shredding the outside of the tire, and 275 should be mounted on a wider wheel anyways.
That setup is what i'm using, but my wheels don't have as much lip as i would like.

More than enough room to mount 275s on 9.5" wide wheels

Not quite, as it leaves the sidewalls a bit flimsy. 10-11" would be best. Also, a 245 or 255 on the 9.5" will show off the lip better.

Does not leave flimsy sidewall. I've been running 245s on 8.5" for long time and I've seen many people running 255s on 8.5". Take a look at BLKMAX005SPD's old Max and tell me if his rear sidewalls look flimsy
