Default 9,5x19'' wheels on front to much?

Hi
i am interested in some wheels, but unfortunately they are only available in
9,5x19'' (f) and 10,5x19'' (r)

i thought best size for front is 8,5?

is 9,5 not to much?

what tires would you buy for 8,5 and 9,5 front wheels?

thx
t.

9½" are very common. A lot of us run 9½ front and 10½ rear.

You can run 245/35/19F and 275/35/19R, those are the most common setup.

you can run a 19x10.5 up front with the right offsets so no, 19x9.5 is no problem!

i thought 9,5 is to much for fast driving and when it is raining?

i must say, that i live in germany and here you can drive full speed with the Z on autobahn.

so i was a little bit scared about 9.5 on front


are the volk GT-S are also available in 8,5?

I run 18x9.5" on front and rear with p265/35r18 on front! I run H&R coil overs. The front is lowered 1.0" inch. Tires don't rub any where. Car seems pretty stable up to 145 mph (have not gone faster than that yet).

Get the GTS with 19x9.5+17 front and 19x10.5+18 rear, you won't be sorry.
