I'm trying to ask for a lower width at the front but not sure if they have it :S I'm looking for 8.5 at the front? Would 19x8.5 +30 fit the fronts? Even if I full lock the steering wheel?

more subtle but it has a +40 offset. would i still stick with the 225/40/19? again wont do such a crazy drop on it

When I was thinking about going with BBS', I couldn't decide on a colour as well. Best bet is to look at pictures of white cars with the same rims on and check out the colours?

if you want to get a custom offset, you can find a rim shop that will shave down the hub part of the rim.

now im comparing 225/40/19 vs 245/35/19
245/35 looks to have a "flatter" sidewall compared to the 225/40 which is bigger but makes it look smaller being rounded. so im thinking 245/35/19 would work with a +40 wheel? what you think tjay? lol

this picture is supposed to be 225/40/19x8.5

i suggest you get some wheel locks, and if the neighborhood is really THAT bad. get different locks or different set of locks for each wheel. its gona be a pain in the ass for you to remove, but hey it'll slow the thieves down. if they really want your wheels, they can get it no matter what. your job is to make it as hard and time comsuming for them as possible and hopefully someone catches them
