Currently have a set of FPV argent replicas on my car and noticed that the RHR rim has a large crack on the inner edge down to the lip and running in line with the wheel. Getting it repaired on Tuesday but don't want to run around on a repaired rim for too long (not a fan of them) Looking for a new set of rims for my car and I'm wondering if a set of 19X8.5's would fit all round on a BF XR6T without having to roll the guards. For reference, wheels im currently looking at are the stance sc-5ive's or the stance sc-6 which both come in size mentioned above, but I believe the argents are 19X8.0. would that 0.5 make a difference?

From what I've read the lower the number the more they fill out the guards? I was looking at a set of 20's at +25. They would rub the guards hard wouldn't they?

Think its the 8.5 +35 that just rubs at full lock (with 245/35 and SSL or lower springs). But not 100% cause havent experienced first hand. Might have been MattyP who mentioned it?OP. OEM rims are 19x8 +36.5 offset. Go on willtheyfit.com and you can see how much it moves and what suits your level of flushness. Id go 19x8.5 +25 for nearly flushness. Could go anywhere between +10 to +35 depending how tucked you want it. If you're sticking to oem 245s all round. Be a baller and go 19x9.5+22 F&R. Shouldnt need roll...just depends how low it is.

I have 245/35r19s at the moment with ssl's on the front and rear. Havent gotten any guard rub yet but the new rims apparently are +35 offset so, going by what you said, they may rub. Is it an easy job to roll guards these days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to reread your OP, but you're only going 1/2" wider and now you're saying +35, which is only 1.5mm off from the OEM offset. so 19x8.5 +35 with 245/35/19 all round will not scrub....safe as houses as they say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im god awful when it comes to math. And I tried the 'will they fit' website and got slightly confused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So your speedo will read a little higher (at 100kmh your speedo will say 101.8kmh). If it really concerns you, I beleieve Ford (or a tuner) can recalibrate the computer (PCM - is that what its called?). But if using tuner, cant remember if they need the sct controller (or if hp tuners can do it too?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
