Thats actually a very good offset.. with the rite tire sizes youll be fine.

chrisvr6

Thanks bigigg. Was hoping either you or threembs would reply. Lol. Whats the widest rear tire you think?285?

threeMBs

Agree with bigigg on offsets - just about perfect. I would use only 255/35-19 & 285/30-19.

chrisvr6

Now i have to decide between those and these. Thanks guys!

That front tire size is recommended for a 9'' rim not an 8.5'' like i will be getting. Should be ok, right?

threeMBs

Yes. 9" wide rim is an industry standard measuring width for 255/35 size. The tire itself can be mounted on 8.5-10.0 range wide wheel.

The reason I posted those tire sizes is because I have them on both my Es on identical width wheels as above - no issues. As a side note: car can even take a 265 width tire (but on 9" wide wheel with a perfect offset) upfront with no clearance issues when non-lowered.

chrisvr6

Perfect. Thanks again!

bigigg

If you plan on lowering the car, consider 245/275. Also consider the look if your going for a more flush with rim/no bulge. Not trying to confuse you anymore.

chrisvr6

No drop. 245/275 will be less aggresive. 255/285 will be beyond the body?

threeMBs

No. 255 will still be "in" - you can use even more aggressive front offset for 100% flush look. 285 on 9.5" et40 is perfectly 100% flush. So what's 1mm? Won't even notice it.

chrisvr6

Got it.
