Hi guys,
need abit of help as I am useless on this subject.
I plan on getting new set or alloys looking at the CVR3s
ive decided to stay with 19s however I’m struggling to understand the offsets regardless of how many times it’s been explained to me. (Just one of those things)

ive emailed driftworks they said et45 9j all round.

The look I’m going for is wide at the back.
and concave as much as possible.

can anyone help with fitment sizes etc or what they know fits. I’m not wanting to do any modifications to the car just a straight swap so as far as the arches would allow..


i know this subject has been raised many times but no definitive answer

thanks in advance

 

Don't follow that recommendation of 9" +45 all around for the sedan is just not a good fit.

I am pretty flush and use

front: 9.5+35 paired with 265 tires
rear: 10.5+57 paired with 285 tires

I am lowered too but the fitment w/o lowering would still apply and and be a good start.

Now, due to the large positive offset our cars need paired with the limited wheel width you will not get much concavity in general. Just so you don't be disappointed.

 

I run 19x9.5 +35 265/35 front 19x10.5 +54 285/35 rear. Also lowered on eibachs.
Like tobeit said you won't get much concavity with the offsets on our car being high from the factory.

 

Thanks for your help guys! I got sent this chart
I think I’m going to settle for 19s
front - 9j et25
rear - 10j et42

i guess I’ll just have to accept they won’t be super concave but better than the ones I currently have 👌🏽

It does baffle me how some people manage to get some extreme alloys on their w205s

 

Mhm, these offset ranges dont look right.

I would not pick 25 on 9" front and 42" on 10" rear is a close call to be a little too much poke. I probably would add 5mm to each offset.

 

do you mean et 30 front and say et 45 rear then?

also seen a set of alloys for sale spec in the pic. The fronts have a 20mm spacer. Originally from a c63 coupe.

could these fit on the w205 sedan?

thanks for your help btw. This is depressing.

 

Here are some pics on the coupe

 

you got a pic of yours ?

thanks for your help
