Offset and Tire Question

Guys, I want to run a 20x9 25 offset up front on a sedan. Should i go with a 245/35 tire or 235/35?

Also i cant find many people running a 20x9 25 offset on their sedans. Got pics for reference?

Thanks in advance!

This is blnewt's sedan with 18x9.5 +38 in the front and rear with 245/45/18 tires










20x9 +25 will be 7mm more aggressive than that setup and with a 245 tire in the front, you'll be pretty darn close to the fender.

What's your setup going to be for the rear and suspension setup?

The rear will be 20x10 with a 40 offset. I want to go 25 offset up front just to make sure I clear the big break kit. I can also go 35 offset.

With a 20x10 in the rear and 20x9 (25offset) is calculated to only have about a 3mm variation. So it should be pretty even fitment from front to back.

You'll be good with that setup and it will definitely help when you're lowered. What wheels if you don't mind me asking.

Dont have much of a car budget this year so I wanted to pick up a set of Niche Essen wheels. Original plan was to go 20x10.5 30 offset all around to have a super concave on all 4 but i just dont feel like rocking a stretched 245 tire on a daily anymore. Guess ill go abit more conservative.

Thank you for your help!

I had 20x8.5 25 offset and 20x10 35 offset. It was mandatory lowering and camber kit to keep from poking beyond fender. It looked great but still scrapped. Others didnt seem to have this problem. I however did and just couldn't cope with it. I am now on 20x9 35 and 20x10 38 and love it.

Been a long while and my last sedan is long gone. But I ran the Niche Verona 20x10.5 +30 all around on 255/35/20, light stretch, no rubbing of any kind. If you have AKEBONO BBK then the front will need a 10mm spacer to clear the caliper, that is what I ran.
Later I switched over to a 275/30/20 on the rear but had to roll/pull the rear fenders.


The niche Essen should come in the same sizes and offsets as the Verona wheels.


cheers!

I just found out that I lost most of pics on phone. These are what 245 offset 25 and 275 offset 35 look on a not lowered sedan. Unfortunately lost pics of lowered and cambered.

















That is why everyone says to backup everything. Hope this helps somewhat
