Are these offsets too aggressive?

Hey guys need your input on the rim size\offset I'm choosing to go with, do you think these are too aggressive without rubbing issues. I'm hoping to have the wheel sit flush with the lip of the wheel well.


19x9.5 +17 front
19x10.5 +18 rear

Tire size choice is between these two, and the car will be lowered about 1/2 inch all around
245/35 or 255/35 front
275/35 or 285/35 rear

Thanks

They'll sit flush with no rubbing on the 245/275 tire setup and rolled fenders.

you'd have to drop the car more like 1.5" to do that. With only a 1/2" drop, you'll already have poke.

That's what I'm running on the current setup, on 245/35 & 275/35. May go to 10mm actually.

Better yet, go with 255/35 & 285/35 and just leave it as is.

I think that may be out of the question then considering where I live, plus I do plan on adding a body kit down the road so that may be a little to low for the roads here in Md/DC.

Thanks Gdup35sedan, I appreciate your input!

Are current pics in your wheel whoring thread? if so I can go back and take a look

Edit: Just took another look at your thread and somehow missed the pics you had with the Volks. That's the setup and look I'm trying to shoot for.

Appreciate the input guy's ....thanks a ton! ...now I just need to find wheels I like

DOMO .
