Definitely +22. You'll need spacers, maybe even skinnier tires up front if you decide to get a BBK in the future if you get the +12.

I'm pretty sure the +22's won't clear a BBK though and the +12's will

Question also regarding this setup, I'm trying to run 255/35/19 9.5 +12
285/35/19 10.5 +12
Stock suspension for now, would I be able to do this with no issues on rubbing and be able to later on go bbk and lowered in the future?

Thats basically the question I started the thread with. Some say you'll rub and others say you won't. The +12 offset will fit a bbk and if you go lower you'll need to roll your fenders. So far thats all I've gathered lol

Negative. The lower offset provides a fatter lip, but less clearance for BBKs.

Depends on the wheel design, some wheels have no bigger lip with different offsets.

Ohh I see...just looked back on their site I misread. It says +0 and +12 will fit the factory Brembos but it doesn't say it fits the BBK

+12 and roll the fenders. done.

think of rolling the fenders as a necessary evil to open up more future rim, tire and stance combos.
