9.5 Rears vs. 10.5 rears

I'm currently considering purchasing some SF Challenges but the wheels are 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 and I believe the offsets are +21 and +23

Do you guys think this is aggressive enough?


I use to have the exact same wheels on my 04 G Coupe but at times felt it wasn't aggressive enough and at other times thought they were perfectly fine...

What do you guys think? Is 9.5 rear large enough or is the one inch difference noticeably different?

throw in a 20mm spacer and it will be spot on.

10.5 or go home... 9.5 w/ spacers will look good but its the offset that will make your wheels look not soo agressive... but if you dont care about the looks... (which i assume you do...) shouldnt matter

Anything smaller than 10's in the rears is a waste of money (imo).

10.5 would be the best choice.

You'd want 10.5 in the rear, but if you must keep your wheels, then this guy is right.

Thanks for the response guys...instead of "settling" this time around I will wait for some 9.5f and 10.5r SF Challenges
