Start with this: http://www.1010tires.com/wheeloffsetcalculator.asp
Then go and check the clearance between the strut and wheel well, if you change your suspension, then that may/may not require more clearance.

In fact, I'll go and take a photo...

Sorry if this sounds stupid but I'm not a wheel expert but wouldn't I be getting more clearance from the strut if anything? Wouldn't the worry then be clearance of the wheel arch at full steering lock? I'm pretty sure my current 19" rims are ET35.. I'll check where I bought my current wheels.

Not sure where you're ordering, but James at ACGSD can make sure you get the right offset.

I am currently running Linea Corse 855s in 19x8.5 offset 40 Fronts and 19x9 offset 40 rear. Very conservative fitment but came from rather aggressive 19x10 offset 40 rears which rubbed all over the place

OK guys, just a quick update. I ordered the wheels with an ET40 offset at the front. I don't think I can take the chance of something going wrong during fitment given that the wheels will be shipped to Australia.
Apparently the wheels are in stock and will ship early next year (Jan I hope).
Will post pics when I've got them on.

Kinda late but does et45 with 10mm spacers mean you are basically et35? Id like to order some 19x8.5 and 19x10 but lost on front offset, rear seems that et50 is fine but for fron is 40 going to be flush with some 245-35-19? Rears would be 275-30-19. Thanks
