Offset question.

Hello everyone.
I have two quick questions.
I am in the middle of buying a set of Replica BBS lm's from the vendor CarBodyKits.
The wheels are HyperBlack VarrsToen 19" ES 1.1.2.
He informed me that they are 19x9.5 front and 19x10.5 both with +0 offset.
My first question is would that be a good offset to go with so that I won't have to spend extra on spacers?
And my second question is what size tires should I run so I can drive comfortably and not rub?
(I do daily my G and I drive it everyday and I only want a little stretch on the tires. Not to much.)
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Are you lowered?

I really should help you since 1. I hate reps 2. This should be in the random question thread. 3. You should do a search and see all the other guys on varrstoens that asked the same thing

You'll need camber, fender rolling and a little stretch to fit the 0 offsets.

We only have +0 offset in stock =( which are very very aggressive for coupe and will need negative camber and stretch tires or fender rolling.

+12 would be the perfect coupe offset but they are not instock at the momment =( ETA on them is around another 3 months.

+0 is very aggressive so you wont need a spacer at all
+12 is "flush" with the fender

+22 is very very aggressive sedan
+30 is flush for sedan

So to answer your question you'll want +12

Next question will largely depend on how LOW are you and how much negative camber you're willing to run but generally:
245/35/19 Front +12
275/35/19 Rear +12 or 275/30/19 Rear +0/+12

Run-Flats and brands such as Bridgestones have meatier sidewalls and may cause rubbing. Other brands like Toyos and Falkens have a smaller sidewall and less rubbing.

Should probably delete the first photo Eric, He doesn't have a sedan. Will only confuse.

^ oops good looking out thanks x.x


Just +0 is very aggressive (you wouldnt want any wider unless you want to be featured on canibeat or hellaflush)

+12 is money for coupes =)

+22 looks a little tucked in (kinda like all the volks you see)

+30 I wont sell to a coupe lol

+0 looks sick if done right but definitely needs a Drop and a Kit to be pulled off IMO.

or at least the OEM aero with a drop

I would do +0 at least in the rear. I have +12 all around and was disappointed by the rear and ended up getting a 15mm spacer to get it more where I wanted it.
