Another - plz help w/ wheels thread!!

Hey everyone. I am buying a set of forgestas from danny @ lmtd. The wheels size is 19x9 +37, 19x10 +35. Are these going to sit flush with my fender and not rub? The way the offsets are so close doesn't seem right to me. My Z the offsets were about a 10mm difference I think.

Also, what tire sizes would you recommend? I want as wide as I can go while keeping a short sidewall to prevent rubbing.... probably going with Hankook.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Can't comment on the offsets, but I know the usual tire sizes guys use for the S is 245F and 275R with the aspect being around 30-35.

just ask danny, he'll know exactly what offsets and what you are looking for

hankook def has a small sidewall, compared to vredstein. I've had both. I'd go with 285 if you want wide tires. Some have gone bigger, but I wouldn't bother.

They will be fine.
I'm running 19x9 +35 and 19x10 +35. no rubbing and sits pretty flushed.
The best offsets that I've seen on our G is 9'' with +25 front and 10'' +30 rear. It was flushed without having to mess with the camber.

I know, I wasn't quite as aggressive at first with my Z, within 3 years I sank 15+K into that puppy, lol!
