Im about to order some Work Wheels XSA 02C in 19x8.5 and 19x9.5.The thing that im having trouble with is choosing the offsets. After seeing a few different offsets on here I think im going to gofor +25 front and +30 rear the same as winstor. Every calculator Ive used on the net suggests the rears will stick out the guard.Is this offset a bit too adventurous? Id like them to sit right in line with the guard.This is the wheel and colour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big tyre on the front, what does it look like from top down? Does that size on the front clear everything at full lock? What sort of clearance is on the inside?Thanks,Benny.

Id like them to sit right in line with the guard.This is the wheel and colourDO IT!Porn rim, don't let me near it or I may rub myself all over them You will be very, very happy with the rears, bit hard to tell with fronts on mine since the place that fitted my rims and tyres put a bit of camber in, however they sit pretty much in line with the guards too.I will be test fitting my 9.5+30 on the front soon, so if you want to wait to see how it clears on mine you could possibly go 9.5+30 all round. I am also running 245/35 front, 275/30 rear. Edited 02/05/11 02:05 PM by winstor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you may have to adjust offset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work wheels aus asked me to measure up the brembos also. Edited 02/05/11 11:15 PM by RynoF6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
