Hi all
I've been offered some 19inch wheels at a good price, not saying what they are yet :cool:
Just wanted to check if the sizes are ok and will fit well on the car.
The sizes are: rim - 19x8.5, tyre 235 40 19, offset 43 at the front – and 19x9 x 255 35 19, offset 47 at the rear.
Bearing in mind I've got the Eibach prokit springs, I'll probably have to get the arches rolled.
Anyone know if the rears will be ok without rubbing?
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like they are spot on...with that High offset at the rear you should have no probs clearing them.
I have 10Jx19 et44 with 265/30 tyres and no rubbing (had my arches rolled by the way).
Get them mate, have the arches rolled and you'll be laughing!

With those offsets you should be ok.But the tyre profiles should be 35 front 30 rear to keep the same radius, otherwise your speedo will be slightly out.

I talked to teh dealer about fitting those CSL wheels at the back and they do arc rolling but he said fitting 9.5 x 18 would void warranty on all my rear suspinsion or something as its too wide?!!
