You might have to go with 225 or 235/35/19 tires going that low of an offset up front to eliminate as much rubbing as you can.

I was hoping to see a larger lip in the rear with a x9.5 rear. But none the less these wheels are hot.

the difference between +35 (aka "safe offset) and +22 ("aggressive") is only 13mm difference. go get a ruler and see how much that is..... not much imo.

no, we custom a adaptor on my stock pipe, so ATLP can connect to my stock pipe.
