Looks just fine to me. Maybe 15mm? If you want very aggresive go 20mm front and 25mm rear.

Default 19" Wheel advice needed

Hey guys I'm thinking about buying some 19" staggered wheels and I'm not going buy the super expense wheels so I just wanted to get an opinion on these two wheels.

TSW Jarama or MRR GT-1

Here are two pics of the wheels on a Z Keep in my mind I do have a ZR, so far I'm leaning towards the GT-1s because they look good and I hear they are a better build than TSW then again I've never had an issue with any wheels that I've ever purchased... but I also like the 5 star look.

That looks pretty close to flush to me; like Terrasmak said, 10 mm or so would work, but I wouldn't mess with spacers at all since you are so close already.

*I've never seen the ducts on an HR; I'd be interested potentially checking into 'em.

I would look into a set of Forgelines as they are in your backyard of Dayton.

I'm currently on +22 all around and I think it needs a 10mm spacer up front and a 5mm spacer in the rear.

To put into perspective. 1 inch = 25.4mm, so going down 5mm or 10mm isnt worth it. Now if ypu want to go 25mm and mess with your camber settings to make them fit then thats what you should look into. Go big or leave it alone.

I dont think the wheels look that bad.

I dont do black wheels I think that kills the car plus everyone and thier mom does black wheels these days.

The specs are 19x8.5 F 19x9.5 R with low offset (under 25mm) due to the factory Brembo brakes. Tires I'll go with 245/35/19 F 275/30/19 R
