wheel and offset opinions
Hi Guys,
i know this subject has been done to death. i read the c-class wheel thread but i wanted to get opinion of c32 owners.
I'm lookin at buying a non staggered setup.
19x8.5 with offset of 42mm
i know the proper et for the fronts is 30, but i read that some people who get 30, still can't clear the brakes sometimes.
should i get a 15mm spacer just to be safe? so et of 27 in the front and probably get a 10mm spacer in the rear, to have a et of 32 in the rear.
My other question is that i want to run 245/35/19 tires. I know some members are running 245 in the front.
I just want to know how much they rub? Do they only rub on U turns or do they rub every time you make a turn.
