Ok guys so I'm looking at getting a set of work gnosis gs2 in 19x9.5/11 I've asked a few guys for help with offsets but seem to get a wide variety of answers so I'm hoping to narrow it down. I want to run a 305 in the rear and a 265 up front. I plan to be lowered on Bc and would like to have a little more camber than stock. I've been told I could run a +10 15 or even a 0 in the rear and a a +10 to a +25 upfront so being this is my first set of wheels I'm completely lost.

15-22 rears and 18-25 fronts is my safe zone. I would still run it through an offset calc.

hey guys i will be running 20x9.5 +12 and 20x11 +11 , planning to run 245/35/20 front and 285/30/20 in the back or, will the back need a 10 mm spacer to sit close to the fender? or should i run 245/30 and 305/25..

UPDATE:

Purchased my new wheels and rear tires :happydance:

19x9 +20

19x10.5 +25 w/Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 305/30-19

I think I may not need spacers up front, but will add 10mm or 15mm rear. Thoughts? I like a bit of a poke vs sunken.

Also, still deciding on front tires. I've received some responses stating 255/35, but according to all the tire calcs. I have used, the numbers for a 265/35 appear to look better. Thoughts please?

Zis4me 03-29-2013 09:37 PM

if flush is
19x9.5 +15 255/35/19
19x10.5 +22 285/35/19

with
20x10 +25 255/35/20 (other offset options 40)
20x11 +20 285/30/20 (other offset options 10 and 28)

I will be
front -4mm inside of fender
back +2mm outside of fender

this seem acceptable??

Nah. I really wanted them, but I'm burning through money right now. House is priority currently. I'm going to settle for spacers and maybe a powder coat. Made cut back on suspension upgrades too lol. No coilovers anymore. Sways, Nismo dampers and some lowering springs.

For tires, 265/35/19 fronts and 305/30/19 rears.

Lol yea I hear ya it gets expensive, I already ordered my wheels but I was thinking about going with a 285/30 265/35. I like the idea of running a wide tire like a 305 but I don't want a really chunky looking tire.

would that set up be stretched?

asdfsammich 04-02-2013 12:14 AM

Hey guys.

Can anyone confirm if 265 on 9.5 and 305 on 11 would give a straight sidewall look?

I'm pretty certain it won't be stretched but also want to confirm that it won't be the opposite (bulged). I want a flat look.

Wheels are Work Kiwami and tires I'm looking at are Advan AD08 if that makes a difference.

Will be bulged. 245 front and 285 rear for normal non stretched look.

Depends on the tire. I've had 245/40 & 255/40 on my 9" wide Rays and looked a bit stretched. Also, I've had 275/35 & 285/35 on the rear 10" wide rays and they looked a bit stretched to me. You should be fine with those sizes. I currently have 305/30 on 10.5" and they some bulge and will be putting 265/35 on 9" front to match the rear (slight buldge). All were Michelin Pilot Sport PS2.
