Help with offset - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

FRSBeginner · 01-19-2015, 04:35 PM

Hi everyone!
I'm thinking of purchasing ag f440 wheels in 19 x 8.5 front and 9.5 rear.
I can't seem to figure out the offset that I want for them though!

What do you all think is a good offset?
Aim is to flush wheels to fender!
I'm lowered on coils to a finger gap at this moment.

Advice? Tip? Opinions?

@swarb
I forgot to mention I have no access to a computer anymore so I can't use the wheel calculator hahaha

swarb · 01-19-2015, 04:48 PM

don't use mobile site. go to a library. borrow a computer. buy a computer. buy a tablet.

FRSBeginner · 01-19-2015, 04:53 PM

Why when I can spend more on the car?! Hahaha
Thanks for the "help" anyway

Good luck finding tires. Selection will be quite Limited.

(There may be less than 5 people on this forum with 19" wheels on the 86)

FRSBeginner · 01-20-2015, 04:25 AM

I actually know a couple people rolling on 19s so tires aren't much of a problem :P
Just the offset on these wheels
Brainstorming by looking through a bunch of pics with specs through my phone 👎

I'm no wheel expert or anything so take this with a grain of salt, but wouldn't the offset be the same no matter what the diameter is? So an 18x9.5 +35 would be the same as a 19x9.5 +35? Going off of that assumption, you could just research cars that are running staggered fitments in 18's and get a feeling for what you like. I know there are at least a handful of guys running those sizes.

Perch clearance issues with wide wheels, add in larger diameters for possibly more perch clearance issues.

Anyway OP, I suggest asking in the "will this fit" thread stickied at the top.

Hey guys - I came across these Rota Torque 17x9 +30 wheels http://store.wheeldude.com/17x9-rota...00-e30-73.html and am strongly considering it. However, before I pull the trigger will these work with my current setup?

Stock suspension
Stock top hat
Eibach sportline springs drop (1.4")
spc camber bolts

+40 or so is a good spot to start with 19s in those widths.

Offset is going to be the same for fitment +/- a few mm with larger diameter wheels simply because they will fill the fenders more with larger diameter wheels/tires.

I'd say just go with 18s since you want a larger wheel but it's your car to do what you want with. 18s would just make life a lot easier.

FRSBeginner · 01-22-2015, 06:20 PM

I would go 18s but these come in 19s and up

Got a 18x8 +35 square on raijins Atm

Liquid6 · 01-24-2015, 03:35 PM
