My 19's are in and On

I finally got my 19's in and I just put them on just now. I got Work Euroline FS Chrome 19x8 w/ +52mm offset on Dunlop Sp Sport FM901 225/35/19. The car looks a lot better. I'll post pics as soon as I can find someone with a digicam. Just wanted to say thanks for all the info before I got these wheels.

its all about offset my man. the higher the better, from most accounts +50 or higher is reccomended for 19's. most people are alright with +45 for 18's, which is what i have. im istalling my springs prob next wknd, ill let you know if i face any rubbing issues

What a tease!!!!

No posts like these without pics!!!

whyd you go with 225's? The 235/35-19s are a closer match to stock, and give a little extra sidewall too.

It's all about the size of the wheel(width), the tires and offset. Your 18's must be an incorrect size and offset to be rubbing. What are you running?

Let us know if you ever incur any issues. I'm in the market for 19's but dunno if I should go 19X7.5 or 19X8. Most rubbing issues I've found reported from this site are below +47.

Welcome to the "Work Wheels" club

I have "Rezax II's" by Work 19" 235/35/19 1.75" drop front/back, no rubs at all... the only time it rubbed was.... durning a sharp turn, going over a speed bump... probably going too fast.
Click below for pics... I'm mostly on page 5.
