Down here in Australia its illegal for wheel spacers and in victoria the cops find any excuse to impound your car, so I was wondering what offset is needed for 19x9 and 19x9.5 wheels with a 1" lip? also the car has stock suspension height.
Is there a chance of getting these wheels without fender rolling or is that a must for wheels of this width?
Sorry if i sound like an idiot, im going from a small bmw E30 to this beautiful car so im still reading up on it.
Is this a coupe or a sedan?

1" is easily doable with these cars and in a 19x9 19x9.5 set up you will probbaly be looking at more like 3" lips.

LMK on the coupe or sedan

haha thats low man....smh

yes I have varrs....at the time they seemed like a really good idea and for the more than 2 years i've had em i have no complaints at all really....and yeah my gnosis are coming in end of the month but i want to get a nice solid set for backups and get rid of the varrs

I'd say in the 9.5/10.5 low to mid teens offset range would be nice

Its a coupe
And a 3" lip is better, I am terrible when it comes to picking the right size wheels.

Oh you can fit much more aggressive without having to roll fenders.

Look for wheels around 19x9.5 +15 and 19x10.5 +22 It's the common G35/350z fitment on large tires.

That's still wrong, but I know the offset is +30

I'd recommend spacers... at least 10mm.

Alright I thought my previous question was my last, but I've got one more for you Blaine. I'm gonna go with the 255/35 on my 12". Found a shop that can get the job done. now for the tire. Achilles or General? I know the Achilles stretch real well, love the way they look. Saw pics of a 245/35 on a 11.5 and it looked money, nice and round sidewall. AND they are $100 cheaper for the 2. I think I'm leaning towards these. Although I like the tread ware on the Generals and the fact they run big. What would you choose?

I really don't have a problem with achilles, and the tread wear rating is lower than the generals but they supposedly last for ever even when under heavy camber.

I'd give the achilles a shot, if you hate em, sell em and switch to generals. Or do smokey burnouts and switch to generals.

Got a question. I have no idea about fire sizes. Wondering if I can wrap my 20x10.5 in 225/35/20 and my 20x11s with 245/35/20s. Is this impossible to do or stupid? Lol thanks!

^^^a 225 is possible to fit on a 10.5 as i've seen it done but the problem is the stretch for the 225/35 on a 10.5 and a 245/35 on an 11 are gonna be different and not really right....is this a case of just have tires and trying to make em fit or are you genuinely going for an aggressive a$$ setup??
