Hello all you wheel offset masters!

I'm in the process of purchasing rims (SSR SP1 Professors) and I just need a bit of help with doing the offsets. I've done the searching and have seen the calculators but i'm not sure if the offset I came up with is aggressive or not aggressive. So rather than rack my brain I'd figure I'd ask...The wheel specs are as follows:

19x9 (f) +24 ET? (not sure what that means)

19x10(r) +24 ET

I'm trying to get a 4.5" to 5" lip in the front and rear. Will this work? Is positive ET the center is closer to the strut and negative ET its farther away from the strut? Thanks for the input everyone! I'm sorry but when it comes to offsets i'm plain confused.

your lips won't be even close to 5" with those sizes and offsets

 

What do you suggest? I know your setup is 8.5/9.5 if i'm not mistaken. What are your offsets though? I was hoping it would be aggressive but i don't want too much tire stretch either. Thanks for your help!


EDIT: I found this link on a importer for SSR wheels.

bump for more advice!

 

To get a 4.8" lip, you are going to have to run a 19x11+11 or a 19x10.5+5 with a SL disk, this is pretty aggressive IMO. If you can settle for a 4.3" lip, then run a 19x10.5+18SL or a 19x11+24, as for the front, it will depend on if you need BBK clearance or not

 

Thanks redlude for the help! Shows i'm not an expert on offsets by any means....How big of a lip will a +24 yield on a 19x10 (r) ? The numbers you posted are pretty aggressive! I think i've may have been too enthralled with wanting a deep lip but not really understanding the limitations. That's quite a bit of tire stretch as well! I don't have a BBK so i guess i can get away with a bit more in the front.

Thanks again for the help!

Thanks! That isn't so bad...Now I just have to see if that will work on a 19x9 in the front...haha
