So i finally found the deal of deals for my futur wheels, They are Ruff Racing R278 Machined black 19x8.5 with an offset of 40mm

The big question
"IS this offset ok?"

A pic for the Fans:

And a Pshop attempt from one of my buddies Acur@TL, btw thanks to whom this car belongs to, we really liked the pic for a Pshop test




Enjoy and leave your comments

All im looking as a result is for the wheel and tire to sit flush with the fender just as the oem's fit

Thanks for helping

35mm offset will sit more flush with the car.

Be sure to post up lots of pics once you get those rims put on.

Nice lookin wheels... 40mm offset will definitely work...

the Pshop attempt looks like a 20" wheel... IMO

they have 35mm,40mm and 45mm for this wheel, i think il go with 35mm cus i really like it when the wheel and rim sit flush with the body, looks more clean to me hehe

for automatic. 35mm, 40mm, and 45mm works fine on the front?

So far I have yet to see these rims on a TL so be sure to take lots of pics for us all.

I will take as many pics as i can when i will get these wheels ,but i wont be installing them before mid april until these city streets clear up of all this mess winter leaves behind

Should be here max 1 1/2 week from now

+35 offset will probably need a mild fender roll...

i went with a 40mm after all

Hey buddy!!!


You sure you want to go with 40mm. Let me show you a pic of my ride with 35mm. Actually I can even go with 30mm in the rear without any rubbing at all. I have my ride lowered at 2.25inches f/r and no rubbing and no fender rolling at all. Check it out!!!



If you get 40mm, the wheels will be sitting 5mm inwards more if you compare it to my wheels!!! However, 40mm will work just as well. But I like the wheels to sit more flush with the fender so from different angles, your ride will look more aggressive.

i could probably add some adapters to push more out if i dont like them with 40mm offset, i went this setup so i can be more on the safe side against a possible rub or needing a fender roll

Finally got my wheels with my tires mounted now just need to wait about a month for the weather.....
