19x10 offset no camber?

[tooslow4umayne]

I'm going to be on Eibach sport line springs. 1.4" drop all around and I wanted to run a 19x10 et 38?? in the rear and a 19x8.5 et 32 in the front. Will this fit? I don't want to run a mass amount of camber either. Anywhere in the -2-4 area ill be okay with. Is this too much? or should I consider doing a 19x9.5 for clearance. I got these numbers from a wheel guy up here he says it wouldn't be much camber but I want to ask the entire forums to get your opinions!

You're going to need coilovers to get the spring/spring perch clearance to run that wheel/tire size... no way around it. Forget the eibach springs and buy any coilover kit. wider wheels will only make your spring clearance worse.

Dang. I want to go bags ultimately so im trying to stay away from the coilovers since their about $2000. I just want a moderately low car for now that I can just reduce wheel gap with. 19s look great but im scared itll rub.
What if I want 19x9.5 on eibach sportline springs ??

Is there any particular reason you want to go that wide?

Since looks is what you're going for it seems, buy the cheapest coilover kit as an interm solution until you can afford the bags.

ST colivers and or BC superlows come to mind which are both under a thousand dollars. Installation wise, it's gonna cost you the same or even less then installing the springs since the procedure is the same for the shop.

Plus you can sell the coilovers after and make back half the money.

^Huh? Why would you pay a shop for that?

A jack, some jackstands, and a few basic hand tools and can swap suspensions in a few hours. Literally.

Not everyone has the desire, time, space or tools for such an endeavour.

Funny, I've done tons of suspension swap in my own garage and I'll never go back to doing that again if I can rent a lift.

Most people don't have access to a lift.

Hence my post... just trying to point out individual priorities and how time and labor are valued differently by car owners.

Wheel fitment for bags is different. Bags are as big (if not bigger) than the stock springs. Coilovers are smaller in diameter than stock springs, which adds clearance for larger wheels. (like a 19x10)


You should read through all the different airbag threads to figure out the wheel specs...

Here is a good place to start...

My advice: If you want airbags, don't buy wheels that hinder fitment for airbags in the future.

Good luck!

I just like the look of wide aggressive wheels. Ontop of that i was told by a shop that it would fit with no issues lowered 1 inch but i was a little skeptical lol but still wanted to bring it up to you guys

Now correct me if I'm wrong. But i know that the wheel offset is a huge difference between bags and lets say springs for example. But Wouldn't i be able to run spacers just to make the Offset lower and still be able to run the same wheels when bags come around ? I mean i don't know I'm curious

You could, but that'll push the wheels further out needing more camber or pulled fenders.

If you know you're going to need the lower offset eventually, just buy the right offset for the airbags and set the alignment with springs to not have huge poke.
