Yeah, I figured they were 19's, but I was wondering what the offset was, were they staggered, and tire dimensions.

Ooohwell, lol

If I remember correctly, I think his rims were 19x8 with 225/35/19 rubber and the offset of those rims is either +40 or +45 and they are not staggered.


Edit: 19x8.5

That was according to James. He also claimed it was at 400 until he was forced to produced a Dyno sheet.

I think anything wider than 8" is going to hit your control arms so I would just stick with the 7.5 or 8" and a 225/40 tire if your doing 19s I am willing to bet 235 will deffintley give you issues. The offset is alright but like I informed you before your front wheel hubs will poke through the center cap, so you are going to have to get some wheel spacers. Good luck they are awesome rims, I get compliments all the time, im just not a big balla like you with 19s. lol

No big bolla's here, lol, sorry I never did specify, Im def not getting 19's. They will be 18's. Then 8" all around it is.

Thanx guys

Unfamiliar w/ these rims, but my 3rd-gen RX7 rims just barely hit the control arms... so I had to space them out to be safe (couldn't fit my pinky between). They're 16x8 (13lbs/ea).

Still might have to push them out some,
