Niche is saying ET42 will touch the brakes and is recommending ET34. I swore somebody on here had ET42 on the front of their car with these same wheels.

Im not worried about it being flush cause I want to possibly drop the car later and I hate everything to do with rub. All I care about is if they will clear the front calipers. If I can be confirmed that the front calipers will be cleared at ET42 I can finally have full confirmation and take them.

I agree with u, I would go 19x8.5 +34 for flushness , u won't rub if u run 235/35/19. I'm on 19x9 +40 with 245/35/19 lowered & don't rub.

19x8.5 +42 is too sunk in.

I do not mind a little bit of a sunk in tire. My stock 18s are sunk in the front and it does not really bother me at all. and those are +45 or 50 I believe.


I really dont want to rub on the front or have turning radius issues with the +34. I heard +34 will stick out past the fender or rub if dropped. Anyone running +34? If you can confirm that +34 is not too agressive and wont rub on 235/35/19 PSS then maybe ill take them. I just dont want them to stick out farther than rears or look strange. If I go +42 I need to confirm that wheel wont hit caliper.

Looking at the Mandrus Simplex 19" and they have a variety of offsets for 8.5" fronts and 9.5" rears.

19x8.5 - Which offset would work best? ET20 or ET32 or ET43?

19x9.5 - Which offset would work best? ET25 or ET39 or ET52?

I was considering the 32 and 39 but would like some advice! Thanks all!

Out of those options et43 for front and et52 for rear your choices will not work

I'd be safe with 245/35 and 275/30 on those with stock ride height correct? Thanks in advance!

Front def. rear should be good I know pss run wider other brands at 275 stretch better and not as wide but either way should be good at stock height 275 even with pss

Check out my thread about my new wheels. Running 19x8.5 ET 35 w/ 245/30/19 and 19x9.5 ET 50 w/ 275/30/19. Running MPSS tires. Lots of pics and specs there...

Hope that helps.

255/40/19 in the rear?

Hi guys,

I'm looking for slightly taller sidewalls on my car, and I've seen someone on here saying that 255/40/19 will work in the rear. But I could not confirm the wheel offset and whether the car was lowered. If I'm lowered on H&R springs and have 19X9.5 +45 in the rear (currently on 255/30/19 tires), wouldn't 255/40/19 rub? Does anyone have any experience on this?

I calculated the difference between 255/30 and 255/40 to be about a 2.54cm difference, which is about an inch. Not sure I have that much clearance or if the tire would stretch enough to prevent rubbing or not. I'm pretty clueless about tire/wheel sizing so any help is appreciated.

EDIT:
Or could I do maybe 275/30 which is only a 6mm or a quarter-inch difference?

It looks like fake BBS caps on Power wheels Pro Style 841 to be honest.

Wheel numbers can make a man go insane after reading for hours. Curious if any one in a sedan is running F 19X9 R 19X10, if so, pics? Offsets?, Tire size? Thanks all!
