Need Opinions on Wheel Offset (+35 or +15) for Flush Fitment

Ok I am Finally getting read to buy my wheels, but i'm not sure what offset I should buy.

I am a big fan of the hellaflush look so I want it to have as much poke as possible. I just don't want it to Rub reall bad (to the point of burning paint)

The wheels I am getting are 19 x 8.5 Either + 35 or +15


Tires will be 225/35/19

And I am going with just springs right now (1.4" drop)
I will be doing Bags later on, but I will hopefull be able to get the SSR's I want then.


The biggest issue I have is, I am not sure if I will have to Roll/Pull the fenders to run the +15 (Which I may do anyway)

Just Looking for opinions from others that like the Flush Look.

+15. But yes you may have to roll your fenders cause of the size of the wheel. Your not gonna get much stretch if any and because of the 19's your putting the wheel itself closer to the fenders

Exactly



And the main reason I am doing 19's is because I want to see how they look before I dump 3K on the SSR's i want.

35 if you don't want to have to roll. You could always add spacers. I did a 5mm on my 17x9's in the rear the other day and it immediately made it look better

I have 8.25 +25 front and they poke out enough already. +15 will definitely poke out much.

This was on stock suspension, with my stance coils I have a little more camber.

This is how a +14 looks (front)


and a +16 (rear)

The rear is 9.5" aswell right, so its .5" further out.
I think the +15 8.5s will do just fine.
