Help with Fat Lip offset

Need help with what offset to achieve a fat lip without sacrificing reliability. I don't want my tires rubbing the fender either. The bottom pics is the look I want but with a fatter lip. The wheel picture is what I'm getting.

First, post up some specifications like the lip size you ordered, and it's offset.

An example would be 19x10.5 -10.

For reference, this is 20x10.5 with et20
With rolled arches there is still slightly more room for maybe et15 or et10 with a small pull. You could Stretch the tires and give yourself even more space.

I haven't ordered it yet because I don't know what offset to get in order to achieve the fat lip, deep dish effect. I like the looks on those car pics I posted. Not much camber and clean looking. I just need some ideas on good offsets. I've searched but still aren't sure.

That is beautiful!! Would that offset look the same on 19" wheels?

Thanks,

Answer to your question.....Yes, as long as the width and the offsets are the same.
They offer those (ACF'S) in a 19x9/19x11 and for your custom offset it all depends on how aggressive you want to go.
The rear at 11/+15 is a very small amount of poke past the fender (which I like) The front is almost flush so you could run a lower offset for a fatter lip.


I have seen crazy aggressive numbers like front: 9.5/19" 7" lips rear: 11.5/19" 7.5" lips -25 all around with a crap ton on neg camber though so its all depending on your taste.
I suggest you look at the offset and fitment thread for some other ideas before you spend the 3-4k your going to spend on these wheels. Also, If you start dipping into these wide and low offset wheels you would be better off at the min rolling the fenders in the rear.
