Default Are these a good size/offset?

Hi all,

Im wanting to get some wheels & found the set I think I want.

But Im new to the whole offset thing & such so if someone could point me in a good direction & also comment on my choice, it would be appreciated.

Should I be worried about my speedo reading incorrectly? Anything else?

FRONTS

19x8.5
Offset: 25mm
Backspacing: 5.90"
Bolt Pattern: 5-114
Rec. Tire Size:225/40-19
Weight: 27.0lbs.
Note: Vehicle Has no TPMS

REARS

19x10.5
Offset: 19mm
Backspacing: 6.65"
Bolt Pattern: 5-114
Rec. Tire Size:245/40-19
Weight: 28.8lbs.
Note: Vehicle Has no TPMS

The front rims are decent sizes and offsets. It will sit a tad bit sunken in compared to the rears, which will be pretty flush.

Not a bad place to start though...however, getting 245 on a 10.5 rim is super stretched. If I was getting this setup, I'd run some 275 or 285 out back, and some 245 to 255 in the front.

Ideally, this is what I would do.

Front: 255/40/19
Rear: 275/35/19

That's just me though

I post an offset calculator and speedometer calculator at least once each week. Both are excellent tools.

I think that a 245 mm tire on a 10.5 inch wheel is absurd but do as you please.

Sorry all! That was a random generator used for tires & I never checked. Just did the old copy/paste.

Now forget about the tires, lol.Thanks for the info!

Thanks terrasmak! Im going with the 9.5 in the front! What about these offsets?


19x9.5
Offset 44

19x10.5
offset 32

Rears are the same size different offset, fronts are an inch wider & different offset. Is there anything else I'd have to replace to get these to look nice with no irregular wear?
