Default New wheels/tires/coilovers advice

Just ordered my KW V'1's... Maybe a 1.5" drop
Here's the plan, I'm getting 19" TSW nurburgring rotary forged wheels with FALKEN FK453 tires... I plan on doing 255/35/19 on a 9.5 wide in the front and a 275/35/19 on a 10.5 in the rear with slight stretches... Sooo any ideas on what offset I should and what would look the most clean and have a flush fitment? Also what do you think about the ride height and tire/ wheel width choices... Fender rolling maybe?

+22 to +12 would be my opinion, given your specs. Variables like camber also come in to play. You should look through the wheel fitment threads and see what looks best to you.

Might as well roll the rears.

+0 offset. Add spacer if you want more poke.

I have same width and same tire sizes right now on my GTS (offsets are +17/18) and the only thing that would make them look better imo is 285/35s in the rear(had this before and it looks great.

+15 would probably be good with those tire sizes on almost any style wheel.

Do you want the WHEEL to poke out an have the tire stretch up into the wheelwell? or do you want it ALL to stick out(aka mexiflush)?

I am dropped on Tanabe GF210s and that puts me at an inch up front and 1.2" out back, maybe vice versa. But I get asked what coils I have a lot, and in the front there's about a 1/2 finger gap, rear with 275-1 finger gap- 285-1/2 finger gap.

Function and form.
