ANOTHER Wheel Offset Question SF Winnings

Any issues with fitting a +29 offset on a 9.5" wide x 19" rim on the front of an 04 Coupe. Tire size is 245 35 19.

Thanks!

depends on the brake clearance from the spokes, but why? That would be so tucked

The 9.5" with the 29 offset are my current rears. I have 8.5" on the fronts. I am buying 10.5 with a 17 offset for the rears and want to move my current rears to the front. I am running factory Brembos and rims are SF Winnings. I can leave the 8.5" fronts but would like to put the 9.5" on the front. Fit issues? Rub? Spacer?

19x9.5 +29 front is going to be pretty weak. You'll need a 15-20mm spacer to make that look decent. Also, it'll have a tiny lip.

How will this look weak? 9.5" rim that I plan on putting on the fronts? I already have the rims and they are not 'tiny' and are on my rears.

You want me to repeat Post #4, or can you just look up and read it for yourself? These are not that great for front fitment, and absolutely TERRIBLE for rear fitment. What's so hard to understand?

We're talking about wheel fitment here, nothing else, so what's up with the personal attacks? Somebody's insecure...lol.

Anyways, it's your car...you see it everyday. Look at the sunken-in rear. What looks good about that?

Maybe you can 'repeat your previous post' since 'I have a hard time understanding'. If I had over 5000 posts on this site maybe I'll already know but I don't. Thus the purpose of me posting this.

I'm confused as to why you're still confused. You asked a question in Post #5 that was answered in Post #4 in the same thread. What does post-count have to do with reading comprehension?

That's brutal dude. Look up my posts and find pics of my car. Someone spends a little too much time on this site.

I am asking info and I get a douchebag giving me info. Just great.

To answer your question non-douchy, your rear wheel will fit fine on the front. Not aggressive but it'll do. The rear fits aswell thats what i used to have.

lol... sadly... you're getting info and comments from one of the most knowledgeable people regarding wheels/offsets on this site... You're fighting a losing battle.

I would have said the same thing, a 19x9.5 +29 is not a good fit for the front or rear of a coupe and does nothing for the looks of your car, i could fit that on the front of my sedan with the right tire size.

As Triple8Sol stated, you'll need a 15-20mm spacer to make it look good.

You shouldn't have any issues. My current setup is 19x9.5 +29 with 245/35/19 up front and 19x10.5 +29 in the rear. I actually want to put spacers on to bring them out more. 15-20mm should be perfect.
