What if I change the tires and have my fenders rolled? What size can I get away with? And will it clear my brembos?

You are the man dude!

19x8.5 +22 225/35-19
19x9.5 +30 235/35-19 (semi-stretched)

rear would need to be rolled... front likely won't rub if you arent slammed

For the 07 TLS with 17 x 8 wheels. What's the lowest offset we can go without rubbing the fender?
+30 should be fine....

2006 TL
Wheel Make/Model: 5Zigen ZR+520
Wheel Size: 18x9.5
Wheel Offset: +37
If lowered (amount): Tein Basics (1/2" thread left--top of tire sits parallel with fender ... maybe little tuck)

Rear fenders are already rolled, portions of the front have already been cut

Couple questions for you Stillhere:

Transmission (Manual or Auto): Manual
Year/Trim (04-07, Base or Type S): 2004
Wheel Make/Model: Volk GT-7
Wheel Size (**X**): 19" X 8"
Wheel Offset (+**): 40mm
If lowered (amount): 1.5 in.

Will they clear the BBK? Will they fit nicely in general. Will I notice going from a 8.5" tire to an 8" tire? These are coming off a TSX...does the TSX and TL have the same hub size?

Thanks!

clearance depends on the specific wheel face chosen... if they are super low disk, you will need a 10mm spacer... if they are high disk clear then you won't even require a spacer

I'm not familiar with the terms 'super low disk' or 'high disk' so I'll just link you to the Black Market thread and you can judge for yourself.

Hi Stillhere one more for you.

Transmission (Manual or Auto): Manual
Year/Trim (04-07, Base or Type S): 2007 Type S 6MT
Wheel Make/Model: JIC Magic / J-force 05
Wheel Size (**X**): 18" X 8.5"

If lowered (amount): 0

Will it clear brembo and will it rub and require fender roll?

they clear the brakes
since you are not lowered you will never rub... in the future if you plan to lower... your tire choice will need to be thought out

At the offset +30 with a 8.5 wheel width.. Assuming the tire size is 235/40R18. Would the wheel sit past the edge of the fender? So on a hard dip it may still chop on the edge?

tires 235/35-19 or 245/35-19

if you are dropped less than 1.8 inches you will not touch the tire on the fender

I ran 18x9 +25 all around with 245/40-18 and never sliced tire with a 1.5" drop

depending on who makes the wheel I'd say 5mm spacer at minimum will be required

tire sizes are correct, but that rear tire is WAY to wide, I wouldn't run anything over 265/30-19 on a 19x9.5 wheel

it may require a 3mm spacer, you'd really have to test fit

I would like to use 245/35/19 all around. I will be using a camber kit in the rear to bring it to stock spec. Will it rub or do I have to roll the fender? if yes, will using a 235/35/19 make a difference? I really dont want to roll the fenders

Thanks for your response stillhere, I have another tire question for ya.

Questions on Tires

Wheel Make/Model: Axis Speed
Wheel Size (**X**): 19x8.5
Wheel Offset (+**): 35
If lowered (amount): None planned, but if done would be around an inch

What size tires would be right for this rim? The roads I drive on often have potholes and I'd like for my rims to be adequately protected.

Wheel Size (**X**): 19 x 8.5
Tire Size (***/**/**) 245/40/19 or 245/35/19
Wheel Offset (+**): Not Sure what is best
If lowered (amount): Stock Suspension

I just wanted to know what would be the best "offset" (or a range that you can advise) so that it will be a flush as possible without rubbing or damaging anything using the stock suspension.

Will a 245/40/19 fit or should I go with the 245/35/19?

I would prefer the 40 if possible as I drive in a lot of bad roads but still want to put the biggest rims that will fit without hurting anything.

Thanks in advance.

Wheel Make/Model:
Wheel Size (**X**): 19 x 8.5
Tire Size (***/**/**) 245/40/19 or 245/35/19
Wheel Offset (+**): Not Sure what is best
If lowered (amount): Stock Suspension

I just wanted to know what would be the best "offset" (or a range that you can advise) so that it will be a flush as possible without rubbing or damaging anything using the stock suspension.

Will a 245/40/19 fit or should I go with the 245/35/19?

I would prefer the 40 if possible as I drive in a lot of bad roads but still want to put the biggest rims that will fit without hurting anything.

Thanks in advance.
245/35-19 is the best tire size I'd run with an offset between +35 and +45

Thanks for the advise and the quick response. You really helped a lot. Just one more stupid question then I'm set. I try to read as much as I can regarding with this whole "offset" thing.

I know that a positive offset brings the tire outside towards the body of the car and I know that a negative offset brings the tire towards the rotors.

I've also read that +35 will bring the tire further out than a +45 so I'm a little confuse. Is this true? Which one will really make my tires closest to the outside body of the car? +35 or +45. Thanks again.

you have the axis incorrect think of positive and negative integers.... the closer to 0 the less far away from the car....

+45 is closer to the car +35 is further
