Default Help with offsets and tires sizes. Please.

I'm looking to get a set of TE37SL's. 19" 9.5 front and 11 rear. I'm just curious on what size tires and offsets I need to get so that the wheels are flush with my fenders and provide me with an aggressive stance. Not a big fan of the stretched tire thing, so I would prefer that the tire fits the rim properly.

I'm thinking 265 front tires and 305 rear tires. I have no clue what offsets I will need with those tire sizes. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

A 305 mm tire will be a tight fit regardless of the offset. Good luck.

nice choice bro! too bad you can't use center caps. but yeah those tire sizes should be good. i'd recommend 275/30 and 305/30. from what i remember your car's not that lowered but in case your worried about rubbing go with 265/295's. the 19's only come in +22 or +12 and you said want an aggressive stance so go with +12 offset

If they only come in 9.5 +12 or +22 and 10.5 +12 or +22, you really can't go 305 rear without some work. The 265/295 combo sounds promising on the +22, though I still think that's a tight squeeze on an 11" wheel - most run the 10.5" rear wheel.

My GTS +17/18 stick out juuust a little.

even with 275's in the rear, ill have to roll my fenders- because im low.

Id say if you want to be totally flush, do the +22.

someone chime in with te37 +22

Yeh I'll be doing coilovers and dropping my car. I would love to see pics with the te37sl on a lowered Z with the offsets mentioned above. Thanks for all the advice so far guys.
