Need some opinions/feedback
After some thought and looking at everyones wheels and tire combos, I think I've decided to go with the BBS CH-R's in 19".....I put H&R springs on the car and was told and have seen on here that 265/30R and 235/35F will work fine and there will be no rubbing which is my main concern...Please chime in if I'm wrong??
With that said, the car is black on black and didn't know if I should go with the Titanium or Bright Silver? Any thoughts or opinions are appreciated...this is a big purchase (got a great deal by the way) and just want to make sure I'm completely happy...If any of you guys have pics of the bright silver BBS CH-R's on ur car can u post please? I've seen black and titanium on cars already during my search but none of the bright silver...Thanks alot!

I would do titanium.. There is something about dark BBS that makes them so sexy. I'm not a fan of black wheels.

The wheels look nice, but I hope you know that those wheels are HEAVY....heavier than stock. Probably 27.xx lbs. per wheel. If that is not an issue, go with the silver!

thanks for ur opinions guys...I heard the only real problem with the wheels is the weight but not really an issue...I think the car with stand out more with the silver IMO...
As for the tire size with the springs....shouldn't have any problem with rubbing or anything, correct?

Assuming you're interested in the 19 x 9.5" CH-R for the rear they have a 45mm offset.
I was looking into these as well and I have a feeling the offset may be too aggressive with the H&R springs.

^^ +63 ... I also was looking for these rims on tirerack, but the offset is too low for a 19x9.5 .

My fears exactly...but tirerack says they will be fine but I'm concerned. Is it the tire size or the offset that's gonna mess it up. Maybe a 255/30 would be better with the same offset? I know there are other guys on here with 265/30 9 x 9.5 rear with no problems but I don't think they dropped the car. I won't do it unless its right.

It's the Offset.. But u should be fine at stock height! If u want to drop, u can always change to a smaller tires (255 or 245) to get that stretch look.

I already dropped it with H&R Sport Springs...so 265 will be too wide and I'm better off going with 255 like stock and should have zero problems?
