Offset is 35... ran a 20.

I think the lm reps are big wheels I don't know if you can run them without rolling. Depends on offset and width

i know you are talking bout bbs lm reps haha, i meant depends on what company that makes the reps, each have diff. offset. varrstoen offers crazy ones like +0, +12, +22. (and its 19x9.5 i believe. they used to make 19x8.5 +34 but its discontinued)

linea corse is a bit more tsx friendly, 19x8.5 +3(5)?

a member here has a set of bbs reps from a different company

there are also companies such as miro or MRR that makes them, but less popular. i am looking at a set of MRR bbs rep right now, pretty cheap :p lol

So, Dane, had you not of put spacers behind your wheels you would not of had to roll your fenders? The 19x8.5 +35mm would have cleared the fenders after the drop with no rubbing issues?

factory is +55 on a 7.5 wheel. +35 on an 8.5 wheel pokes the wheels out. What I am trying to figure out is if + 35 on an 8.5 will rub on Tien ss'.

35 offset would not work if you slammed it even 4.5 inches which I am now. you would need to roll or get some camber kits to get it more negative.. and also depends on tires sizes..., I fucked around with that tire stuff allot lol... gone through 5 different tire setups

one inch is nothing.youe wheels will poke though. it will sticky out maybe half an inch.. yo probably won't hit the fenders unless you go 2 inches or more..

according to this:
http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...toModClar=Base

originial bbs have offset of 50+? so thats closer to stock correct? according to them 18s will fit the car assuming that is at stock height

... your making things so complicated. higher numbers will make it sink more. so 50 would fit.

no. they are all 35 offset or less and it is 8.5 wheels... look at defconsky for reference..

his wheels are 19x9.5 + 40 he is flush or poke alittle bit.. but his tires are stretched. if you move the wheel out and tires that cant be stretched then no they wont fit.

smallest tire size for 8.5 is 225width and that looks horrid.

its the cheapest ive seen and with our bolt pattern.
do you think 245/40/19 tires would cause a problem or look too big?
