just about to buy new rims-getting rid of the current rims cause garbage offset and dont want spacers anymore...

 

getting 19's for decent side wall to try to retain some grip. would like 9.5's on the front but dont want flush- would rather 5 mm inside guard. a bit paranoid about cop attention tbh...

 

is this doable?

 

cheers

I'll grab some pic's of my 18*8.5 +22 rim to upright clearance in a bit to give you an idea.

U mite struggle to keep it from poking mate,

 

But id say a 25-28 offset mite get u flush! Though im no expert on this.

 

My 8.5s are 36 offset with about 10mm to the gaurd but tight to the control arm! On 20s and had to stretch the tyre to not hit

yeah that's about right. mine are 19 x 8.5 +35 with a 20mm spacer and sit basically flush.

 

I was looking at 19 x 8.5 +20 but am struggling to find a wheel that has those specs.

Tough looking rim imho

 

Furious gibbon (B series) and Seaton (fg) both have them, pics on here somewhere

 

Want some myself but oil pump comes before new wheels

thanks for suggestions. dont want the rota/ te37 look etc. after a concave rim.

8.5 +25 might have to do, but def wanted +20.

 

I have +15 now and its dead flush- maybe 2mm in. 

 

edit: just checked out rota site and they do very little in 19's- maybe 2 rims?
