ordering rims soon....want 19x 10 inch rims for the rear.....will they fit ok and will they rub anything ??



thanks

XeRo

they will if you roll your fenders...19x10 is a wee bit wide and taller...

I guess you're willing to throw ride quality out the door then?

I got 8.5" up front & 9.5" in the back (both 19"). That is preety much the max size unless you roll your fenders like Xero said above.

army_rx8

or you drop down to 18" rims that are wider:D that's my plan.....if only rims weren't so much damn money ah well time to rob a bank or tow hehe then i can get a turbo and rims:D

what offset
a local rx8 friend just called me on the same question.
but u know what im gonna tell him- just do it u *****

gxsilver

ha ha.....i think the offset is 30 or 35

Fanman

I have 38 mm up front & 35 mm on my backs.

i have 19x9.5 on the rears with 35mm offsets (car is lowered an inch) and i was rubbing. fenders are rolled now and all is good but if you do 30mm or 35mm you will stick out from the fenders.

IMO if you go 19x10 your offset will have to be 45mm-50mm so its flush with the car. you still might have to roll the fenders though

Vivid Racing put a set of 19x10's and 19x8's on their shop car and here's what they used:

19x10, +45mm with a 275/35-19
19x8, +43 mm with a 255/40-19

They state that they had to roll the rear quarter panels to prevent scrubbing.

I am currently using a set of KDW2's, 255/45-18's on the stock wheels. Although I don't like the taller sidewall having reduced the turn-in feel, the tire itself serves as a great season-stretching tire. When the weather breaks I will then switch to a new set of wheels and tires. Hopefully, I can get the Azenis ST-615 when I am ready.
