im lowered on on DF210.. Going with 19x9.5 front and 19x10.5 rear with -5 offset all around. What size tires should i run in the rear? 245 or 255? And what kinda tires are good for stretching?

are you stretching because of clearance or for looks?

Ok I'm kinda new at this but i just purchased a set of Venaci V124 20x9.5et22+20x10.5et23 I am on stock suspension but was thinking about getting tein s techs to lower the G on. Will i need to roll my fenders? And plus i want an aggressive look so would i be better off putting spacer all around and I'm not sure about what size, any suggestions? Or a Camber kit?

Thanks

245/35 is fine for the stretch

generals stretch well but not as well as toyo's but theres a reason toyo's cost more

Sup Wheel experts.. as you(Dre) and Shane know i got the SSR MS1s..

and love the fitment... but damn you all im envious of your flushness and i would like my car lower than what it is,, (you guys saw it on friday) im getting 235/35s tomorrow so fronts will be good by then..

now.. i wanna either add spacers.. or order new lips from SSR.. dont know if thats even possible but who knows..

im leaning towards spacers.. and yes true fitment is without spacers but dont wanna sell my wheels right now just to add another 2k and get new ones.. dont have 2k for new wheels + sell these..

i will need to add spacers later on when i get a BBK anyways since the rears are the regular Disk and kinda thought that a 5mm would be enough.. bringing me to a +13 yet i feel i should add a 10mm spacer in the rear to bring it to +8 dont feel like going more than a +8 because i live in South Central and man.. the streets are straight Fvcked here.. and i fear my wheels,car, or tires will get raped by the Pot holes, uneven pavement, random cracks on the floor, train tracks (that arent flush)..

so what do you wheel gurus suggest?

i want to go for looks as i have given up on the desire to track my car with these wheels..

also since i wont be messing with the front i assume a 235/35 on a 9.5 rim is good right?

and i feel like a 265/35 or 265/30 is good on a 11.5 rim as opposed to the 295/30 i have...

235/35 and 255/35, GO A LOT LOWER, then use a ruler to see how big of a spacer

but none of this " i live in ____ the streets are bad", that's not an excuse

Here's a question - got 20" MRR GT1's with 8.5 front, 10" rear rims size, and running 245 35 20 up front and 275 30 20 rear.......and want a better flush fit......thinking of running 30mm rear, and 25 mm front. Oh, forgot to add, +25 offsets all around, 4" lip in back, 2" in front. Will I have a bad case of rubbing? Fenders on front and back rolled. Before this, I was rubbing with 275 35 in the rear, so I switched to a 30 size rear........now it looks like the rim in the front is tucked in 3/4" or so, and the rear, 1" tucked, so I dunno.

Anyone have an opinion on what to do? I'm saving for some Winning or VS XX but for now, want to have something that looks halfway decent.....any help would be appreciated!

Whats up wheel gurus, kinda got the set of wheels im looking for MOZ and im lookin to get a setup of 19 9.5 front n 19 10.5 rear, now im goin to get some tein flex coils soon to lower since im on stock suspension right now, front n rear cambers as well n gonna roll front n rear fenders to try to get this right the first time without using spacers...not goin bbk but might go brembo in the future. Whats some semi-aggressive offsets for my 06 coupe? I was thinkin maybe +9front n +11rear? Can i go even lower with the number to make it look even more aggressive? Also would like to factor in that i'd like some tire life (not looking to buy tires every 5-6 months). Thanks Some of u guys really got this down to a science! Ohhh yea might've forgot to mention im lookin for big lips on the front n rear Thanks again!
