STR 610 - 19x8.5 and 19x10.5

I'm a bit of a noob, but thought I'd share my thoughts on a set of STR 610s I got myself for Christmas. Specs are:

19x8.5 +17 and 19x10.5 + 35

Running them with 245/40/19 and 265/35/19 Bridgestone REO50A.

Weight came in at 22 lbs for the fronts and 27 lbs for the rears. Thus, somewhat lighter than the stock 19x8 and 19x9 Enkei wheels.

I think they look fairly clean, came in around $700 shipped, and are lighter than stock. Couldn't go wrong for a reasonably priced set. Have a quick picture I took today but will post more pics of the wheels on the car tomorrow.

A-Spec Wheel and Tire was super nice to deal with and shipped for free!

Nice looking wheels & look good on your coupe. The front tires a bit big in the sidewall for your matched rear tires, a 245/40/19 would be a better match but you're not driving a AWD X so at least there won't be any AWD issues.

Oops, that was a typo. Made the correction. Meant to say 245/40/19 fronts.

Given the "S" badge on his car, I'd say yes.

Those actually look really good for the price. I've been looking for something with that design, size, and price point for a long time. I think I'll get these, how did you go about ordering them?

does the rear rub at all? I want to get STR 607 20s with 20x10.5 +35 in the back and don't know if they will rub with 275/30/20 tires. Do the rims poke out past the rear fenders? I don't want to make any mods on my car to make them fit.

No Rubbing!
First off, these is absolutely no rubbing with these offsets. I'm running factory camber settings as well and have no issues whatsoever. The edges of the tires barely go a few mm past the fender, but ultimately, that's what you want for a nice flush look without rubbing. For those of you that are lowered with a little more camber, I'm sure these will look even better.

Will Clear Sport Brakes
These clear the sport brakes with more than enough room. You need to order the 8.5 wide front wheel with a +17 offset.

How to Contact A-Spec?
I've been dealing w/ Aaron Huang and he's been very helpful. Try giving them a call at 510-533-3533 and tell them Andrew B (with the black G37) sent you. I think they still may be offering free tuner lugs with a set of wheels (nice colored sets).
