Do your fronts stick out?
Hey,
Looking at new wheels (19x8.5, 19x9.5) and the fronts will net to a 27mm offset (+35 w/8mm spacers). This gives me about 1/16" to the caliper. From what I can tell, they will stick out about 3/16" past the fender; not a fan. Anyone else have this issue? TIA, Mike.

No problem here. I run the stock rear C32 rims on the front (17x 8.5). Just clears the caliper and fender. Max tire size is a 245 and even some of the wider 245s would rub on a lowered car.

Im running 18x8.5 et 25 w/ 235/40/18s on the front of my car and they dont stick out enough imo! 
ET 25-27 will get ya to clear COs and most bbks out there and your tires will line right up w/ the fenders. No issues lowered either after rolling back the plastic linings a bit.
