Be aware that its not going to be perfect due to the changes in suspension geometry and how it reacts once the car is on the ground with weight and tires. Expect a +/- 5mm tolerance or more...

 

18x8.5 +35 front on 235/40
18x9 +30 rear 235/40

perfect setup

 

you sure about that? how could the geometry change? i'm talking about taking all the suspension out and jacking the control arms up until the lips meet (or are modified to meet). not that 5mm is a huge deal. i could make any minor adjusments using camber plates and height adjustment.

 

i'm not really understanding what difference it would make, if the wheel has a lip or not! the reason i want to run 19's is because i have a body kit and the 17's look like 15's! as far as staggered i love the appearance it give a car! as far as being lowered, i am lowered on tien basics all around. so with these i can adjust the height as needed! i will take some pics tommorow so you can see what it looks like on 17's!

 

a lot of people do not like to run staggered wheels on fwd cars. its not as big of a deal if the rim has no lip. i'm considering running staggered set with a lip but i'm not sure yet.

 

here are some pics, i know they arent the greatest but i havent moved my car for a while! i have to change out the clutch. but anyway these are 17x7.5 with 45 meat on the tires

 

That was a weird post on my part and I apologize, just saying its hard to get it perfect when you jack up the control arms, but like you said, a few mm is no big deal

 

its all good.
