What are X guys running for offsets

Hey what are the X guys running for staggered wheels. Offsets
I'm trying to find a set of rims I like but the ones I like are 19x8.5 +35 and 19x9.5+40, 245/40/19 an 275/35/19 tires? thanx for any info you have, Wheels are a weak spot for me.. All the offsets confuse me. :/

For my X coupe. Sorry guys,

^ that was an incredibly unhelpful post....

19x8.5 +35 and 19x9.5+40 are pretty common offsets for the sedans and you wouldn't have a problem running those.

However a spacer up front and being lowered would definitely be good.

You really should have mentioned that.

Those wheels will fit like **** then lol

Go for a wider stagger do like a 9/10 stagger and aim for the offsets to be around +20

offsets have nothing to do with ur awd. Thats like letting your hair grow to be smarter...
Its all about the tires you're running. If you will not be stretching tires. You'll be good with 245/35 275/30

use that, enter the tire sizes and then hit enter, at the bottom it will show you a difference in size in a percentage. Keep that percentage under 3% and as close to zero as possible.

laughed at the hair grow comment.

Ok so the tires are good 245-40-19- - 275-35-19. Just look for something with lower offests, Like 20-25? Should that be both wheels.. I can get all four in 19x9.5 but with 20 or 25 offsets?

if ur going on 19s yea 40/35 profile are fine

If you go 9.5 all around 20-25offset will be fine. Not crazy flush but decent.


figured hairgrowin was the best example lol.
