19x10.5 ET +7

On the rear of my E55!






I dont know whats considered aggressive for these, but see most rear wheels that are 10 or 10.5 wide in the mid 20s for offset...


If time permits, I eventually want to move to a 19x10.5 +0 or a 19x11.5 or 19x12 +35ish on the rear.

with stretch tire it can be done, but what about the traction? a 19x12 rim can stretch 285 width tire, and traction can be saved, but not for our cars...

Im stretching a 275 on my 10.5.


And there is still enough power to break the 275 loose.

Fitment looks good! Is that a 275 in the picture? I'm convinced 19" 11.5's or even 12's would work in the rear with a subtle poke/stretch from a 265-285 tire. If a +7 10.5" fits like that then there is definitely room to go 11"+

And would look retarded in my opinion. a 265 tire in an 11" wheel or 285 in a 12" wheel? No go for me.

how much backspacing is there with the 10.5 rim? are your fenders pulled?
