Sorry I tried doing a search already but I couldn't find the answer I was looking for...

I realize that the perfect offset for sedans is +38 with 19x8.5 rims, but the closest offset for the rims I want are +35.

How much is this difference going to effect the way they look on my car? I know its a small difference but will I need to roll my fenders with a ~1.5" drop?

If I went staggered the rims in the rear would be 19x9.5, the offset in the rear is only offered with +42. Again that's only a difference of 3 (ideal being +45).

Bottom line, should I look into other rims? Or do you think they'll look and be suitable?

Thanks for the help!

 

You will be ok with that set up. You won't need to roll the fenders at all.

 

so the 8.5" + 38 front and 9.5"+45 rear dont' need to roll fender at all on a lowered sedan?

 

excellent, thats what i was hoping for, hopefully it won't stick too far out from the fender

thanks for the help man

 

To add,

Even with 275 tire's mounted on the rear. 245 max in the front is a given.

 

the 8.5" + 35~38 front and 9.5"+42~45 rear
and 245/35 front tires. 275/35 rear is the bestset up for lowered sedan?

 

Be careful with the +35mm offset. You may rub unless you run negative camber.

The 8.5/+38, 9.5/+45 is a proven combination. Also consider a 40 series tire. They will give you a bit more sidewall and a little more cushion. I am running 8.5/+38 with 245/40/19 tires on all four corners and I think it's perfect. I chose the 40 series tires because they had the closest overall diameter to the stock 17's.
