Need wheel experts!!!!

Maybe i can get more people to chime in on this

So i am ready to get my wheels on order but am having problem finding the CORRECT answer to wheel dimensions for the front.

So I like the Schwert SC 1 from Work and googled and found ballinfizzle had these wheels on his car. here is the link where he sold these wheels
https://acurazine.com/forums/car-parts-sale-361/work-schwert-sc1-19x9-5-19x10-brushed-aluminum-731700/ I understand his is a base TL so i will have to change up the front alittle

i want you (the wheel experts) to help me on the front.

I am using ballinfizzle wheels size for the rear (19x10 +30) so What is the most aggressive i can run on the front that will look like the rear on my TYPE S 6mt??

I suppose I could be of some use.

I ran 19x9.5 +24 with the varianzas up front, here is how they looked:



On this next pic, from a front view you can see the lips sticking out:





19x10 +30 is the most flush you can go on the TL for the rear where the fender kisses the lip.

So, I would run 19x9.5 +29 to +34 up front.

you setup looks great. Do you have any lighter pics to show more? i will be doing the 19x10 +30 to be totally flush. Exactly what offset will be needed to make it the same way on the front but also clear these annoying bbk?

you say from a 29-34 which one will give the best flush look and clear?

I honestly think +30 is the key offset to 9.5 and 10 respectively.

19x9.5 +30 FR
19x10 +30 RR

You will be pretty damn flush with those specs. Think of my front set up but retract 6mm. The lip will kiss the fender. Lower offsets are better accomodated for BBKs.

Thanks alot for your information as i am no wheel expert and do not know anything about wheel offsets. Matter of fact Works sent me a .pdf to measure everything out and send back to them but did not warranty that their solution would work and i would be stuck with it. That is why i came to aziners as y all have had experince with the TL's.


Do you know what the lip size would be running the +30 on the front?? around 2.5-3" maybe?? If its that i can live with it and hope the wheels fit over the brakesi!!!
