Hello Guy`s,

I am in search for 20" Concave Rims, or something like that.
But i don`t know which OFFSET fit on my E350 CDI Coupe.....?

Can someone confirm, can i put on my E350 CDI Coupe 1.5" Lowered...

Mandrus Wheels
Front 8.5x20 ET35 with 235/30 20 Tires
Rear 10.0x20 ET45 with 265/25 20 Tires

Or

Corniche Wheels
Front 8.5x20 ET45 with the same Tires
Rear 10.0x20 ET48 with the same Tires

Or

Rohana Wheels
Front 9.0x20 ET45 with 245/30 20
Rear 10.0x20 ET45 with 275/25 20




Big Thanks
Regards from Switzerland

Take a look at my set up.And the tires are 245/30 front and 285/25 rear.Just few rubbing issues at the rear.

rjcastr

im doing something similar, do the tire size matter alot when trying not to rub ?

gavrocool

Of course,it matters.You can try 275/25/20.

Which Offset will fit now on my Car ?
I think about,

Front: 9.0x20 ET35
Rear: 10.5x20 ET45

Or Rear 9.0x20 ET42

Tires ?

245/30
275/25

Or
Front: 9.0x20 ET33
Rear: 9.0x20 ET 33

With Tires
Front: 245/30
Rear: 245/30

?

10,5 for the rear is too aggressive.i would not recommend it.
A perfect set up for you :
8,5*20 front ET 35 tires 245/30
10*20 rear ET from 45 to 50 tires 285/25 or 275/25.
Feel free to ask me anything.

And what do you think:

Front: 9x20 ET35 with 245/30
Rear: 9x20 ET42 with 245/30

Or

Front: 9x20 ET42 with 245/30
Rear: 9x20 ET 35 with 245/30

Or

Front:9x20 ET 35 with 245/30
Rear: 9x20 ET 35 with 245/30

What do you mean is the Best Offset ?

As i can see we all have the same issues.Why it is so difficult to find a set of nice wheels and a suspension for those coupes?Has anyone installed the Eiback Pro Kit with dynamic Handling?

EQP89

1.5" (40mm) Lowered well done, next Step Rims...

Can this setup be Perfect for my Coupe ?

Corniche Wheels
Front 8.5x20 ET45 with 235/30 20 Tires
Rear 10.0x20 ET48 265/25 20 Tires or 255/30 20 Tires ?

gavrocool

I think here you can find some info about wheels width.

I think i will use this Set-Up

Corniche Wheels
Front 8.5x20 ET45 with 235/30 20 Tires
Rear 10.0x20 ET48 265/25 20 Tires

I made an Fake with the Wheels



Do you have problems with the weight of the wheels? Acceleration?
The Corniche in weighing 10.0 15.1 kg and 8.5 14kg without Tires, will already be a lot heavier ? But the Look wil be Perfect...

gavrocool

Looks awesome.Try ET 35 for the front,but ET 45 is ok too.And for the rear try 275/25 or 285/25,265/25 is too low.Anyway,congrats on your choice.

EQP89

I can use,

5mm spacers
10mm spacers

I think 10mm spacers will be fit perfekt with:
8.5 ET45 + 10mm spacers = ET35
10 ET48 + 10mm spacers = ET38

Or 5mm spacers
8.5 ET45 + 5mm spacers = ET40
10 ET48 + 5mm spacers = ET43

What do you think ???

gavrocool

10 mm spacers for the front.For the rear you won't need spacers,the offset is perfect.Reconsider 265/25.I do not think is the right choice.

Here are my new Rims.....

They look really good, but I hope roads in your area are glass-smooth.

What tire sizes did you settle on?

gavrocool

Final price for the wheel set?

EQP89

The Roads in Switzerland are ok but i am careful with this wheel`s....
The Offset i use is; 8.5 ET45 at the Front and 10.0J ET48 at the Rear with Hankook S1 Tires in 235/30 ZR20 and 265/25 ZR20. Next time i choose 275 for the Rear.

But i love the Wheels...

Nice looking car,congrats.
