Exclamation Gallardo wheels fitment

Hey guys. I hate to do this, but I need some quick feedback.

I have a chance to get a set of Gallardo wheels with good rubber. I don't know the specs on the tires, but the wheels are:

19x8.5 et42 fronts
19x11 et55 rears

They have been redrilled to 5x114. I am currently on Tein S-techs (will be getting coils soon), and I have extended studs with 12mm spacers.


Is this a setup I can run successfully without rubbing the inside and without poking out past the fenders?

I appreciate your feedback!

With those offsets and those spacers, you'll be lucky to come CLOSE to the fenders.

Thanks for the info, NoQuestionZ. What you say is confirmed by the offset calculators, which show the wheels sitting in farther than my current setup.

With proper spacers to make it sit flush with the fenders, do you think it will clear the suspension? I can space them out a bit, but I don't want to rub against the suspension.

Think of the money you'd spend on wide enough spacers to make them look "decent" (minimum 25mm on all four corners which are easily $100 per pair if you get hubcentric-$200 or more) ((and that won't even get you "flush with the fenders)) and you have more money for better fitting wheels. Unless you're dead set on these wheels stay stock(or whatever wheels you're on now)

My 2 cents.

I never imagined Lamborghini wheels to have such weak sizes.

Just out of curiosity, what is the asking price for these?

And yeah, I would definitely pass on these as well.

They are going to look horrible. So tucked in. The design is far from thrilling as well.
