Coupes w/19"x11" in the rear with a BBK?

I'm looking at running a 19"x11" setup in the rear on my coupe with a Rotora 4-pot BBK. Anyone running a similar setup? What offset? What size tire? Did you have to do anything more than cut/roll the fender?

Not many wheel manufactuers make a 19x11 unless you go with HRE or iFORGED. I wouldnt recommend either wheel companies though as I dont think the quality is quite up to par. I know a lot of people will argue with me on this but considering HRE's are banned from the track and reading other people experiences with iFORGED, I think considering other options would be ideal. Im not sure of iFORGED but I know that HRE uses a 5051 grade aluminum which is quite soft even if its forged. I always would recommend VOLK wheels as they use 6061 aluminum which is much stronger.

I know I can run a 19"x11" in the rear. Necessary offsets will vary with different wheels due to spoke design. What I need to know is if anyone is running that size with a BBK.

I think it would matter if you want to use a 4 piston or 2 piston caliper.With a 2 piston caliper with 14" rotor shouldn't be a problem.

Yes, I will be looking for a buyer for the GT-7s in about a month. The tires will be pretty much done by then. The fronts will be a year old. The rears will be less than 6 months old since the originals were damaged and subsequently replaced. No curb rash so far. Sizes are 19"x8.5" +23 and 19"x9.5" +24. Color is diamond black. Will include carbon fiber GT-series center caps ($100 value). Looking for local SoCal buyer. Price is $1,800.

here is my 19x11 +18 in the Rear....Junction Produce Scara's.. I would definatly suggest a camber Kit in front and back..........U WILL RUB WITH OUT....my rear fenders are cut as well...my front is well over 2 degrees of camber...and the rear...well..pretty negative as well....to get the full agressive affect of the wheel....my car is lowered 1.7 all around, any higher will make the wheels stick out and look really bad and youll be rubbing some fenders....





NEGATIVE CAMBER

Work will custom make you a set, they offer most of their wheels in 3 disc choices, one being for big brake applications. Usually takes about 3 months I believe. This is who I order my wheels from, he rocks:
