Question New Wheels Offset Suggestion

OK first off i am a total space cadet when it comes to the offset selection of wheels, i would appreciate every suggestion...Thanks

I am getting the Axis Shines F:19x8.5 // R:19x9.5 the offsets available are:

Fronts: (15) (35) (45)

Rears: (20) (40)

As for the tires, i already have the Toyo - Proxes T1R – (F) 245/35-19
(R) 275/35-19

I am at stock height at the moment, but plan to lower using the Eibach Pro-kit

Use a offset calculator to compare your current wheels to the new wheels. With the new dimensions, check the car with a tape. Do you clear the suspension, brakes calipers and fenders? Reference: http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp

15-20... I doubt you will have to roll your fenders with those offsets and springs... but every car is different...

If you choose the +15/+20 route, your fronts will stick out 21mm farther than your stock rims (assuming you have 06+ Touring v2 wheels) and the rears will move out 25mm. Even with the Pro-Kit, you shouldn't have to worry about rubbing issues but like sdZ33 said, every car is different.

Offset: +30mm
Weight: 24.4
Tire: 225/45/18

Rear

This math is correct.

I am dropped on the Eibach Pro Kit with 20mm/25mm spacers on V2 Touring stockers and there are no fender rubbing issues at all.

The first three pics with the stock ride height... the last 2 are lowered.

These are my 18x9 and 18x10 +20 all the way around with 245/40/18 and 275/40/18 tires.
