How far does that place the wheels outward compared to stock?? Or does it just look like the stock? I know many people here don't want their wheels to look tucked.
In this scenario the front wheels will be tucked in 3.7mm further than stock. The rear will be out 21.4mm from stock (~.84").

Luke, I would assume that your opinion for the best choice in any wheel would be as close to stock offsets (30f/33r for track) as possible as long as the width allows clearance. Correct?

Luke,
Would what type of rim have any impact on what width i need? I want to purchase Volk GT-7's i guess 18's since they don't manufacture 19's at this time. 18x8.5 front and 18x??? i don't know what to put in the back.......what about mid face type for front and rear would dat be possible?? and what offsets would you recommend? THanks for your expertise.

not really it depends on wheel width, suspension clearance, fender clearance, tire size selection, vehicle dynamics and driving characteristics.

That is why our info is so exact and precise

Luke

On your website when you choose the 19x10 rears and 19x8.5 fronts, the tire sizes come up the same as stock. Should they not be wider?

Those rims look great on your car. I would love to see some different angles of your car. Please let me know if you've posted more pictures that I've missed or, if not, I would appreciate your posting more pictures.

I have been thinking about the GT-C rims but my first choice have been your rims. I would love to see more pics. of yours.

Thanks.
Victor

The valuable search button once again saves the day. I didn't know that the GT3's where available in 11 inch rears...I maybe would've gotten them. Like em wide...295's are nice....Thanks for the compliments Vicmar90.

Luke,

I have two questions about some SSR-1s or 3s.

First, how hard is it to transplant the tire pressure sensors from the stock wheels?

Second, are there any package deals on SSR1s (or 3s) with tires. I'm thinking this will be a mid to late January purchase for me.

Feel free to drop me a message at mcduck@earthlink.net

Thanks!
