I found a set of TE37's, but I think the offsets are too conservative for the G. Can someone tell me if these would look flush?


2- 19x8.5 Fronts 5x114.3 offset +35

2- 19x10.5 Rears 5x114.3 offset +22

depends on how low you are,

but a general estimate you would want something like 9.5 single digit offsets and 10.5 with like double digits but close to 10

Did some snooping around...

How is it that Most 2pc Work wheels have offset ranged that you can choose from IE+50 ~ -20

Yet all of the 3pc wheels have specific offsets only to choose from.
Wouldnt it be easier to alter the lip size on the 3pc wheel and make it any offset you would like?

yah man i don't know why that is, i noticed that for the meisters as well, but i believe you can still order custom offsets, but how much that would be depends on the vendor who you order from

I was told by a vebdor Work doesn't do custom offsets, although that may just be lazyness on the vendor part

yah man thats probably just lazyness, i don't know about that one, work wheels has done a lot of offsets and my offsets were considred "custom" even though they were on the list of possible offsets

so the vendor will say wutever, have them call work wheels directly to see if its possible

that vendor sucks ... dont buy from them .. that just means he's doesnt know what will fit and what wont (or in some cases, doesnt know how to make them fit)

As I mentioned before im looking at :

f:19x9.5 + 12
r:19x11 + 17

I would really only bring the rear to a 12 or so, and the front maybe an 8

Thus, is it worth it to shell out the extra 100$/wheel or just get 5mm spacers...

why would you want to run factory camber? if your car is low just make sure you have your toe down to 0, as for the camber have a balance.. factory camber on those specs would be so unorthodox
