Default Wheel Help

Can somebody tell me if these rims will fit my 07 GT?
19" +35 offset
5-4.5 5-114.3
9.5 inch wide
Real good deal is available if they fit.

Do you know the backspacing? Brand of wheel? They could be a bit wide for the back with that offset causing the tire to stick out,especially if your lowered.

I remembered that Cruizin Concepts sells those wheels.According to their list of fitments you should be O.K. .Next would be tire sizing.They may have a recommended tire size for you.

I hope they fit I have a set of ADR M Classics on the way...should have them Tuesday.
19 x 8.5 32mm backspacing and 19 x 9.5 35mm backspacing for me.

Most of the FR500's are 10" with a 40mm backspace.

My calculations are that your wheels will be 3.38" out past the mounting surface of the hub and the FR500's would be 3.43" out. (half of the wheels width minus the offset)

That's pretty close to identical....and the FR500's fit perfect. The only concern I would have is on the front with clearance on the inside. That's why I went with the 8.5's up there. They will be similar to the 9" FR500's.

I only use the other wheels as a reference because we all know how well they fit the cars.

Anyone want to chime in? I hope I'm thinking of this the right way...

There is some guy on an other forum (TSW's)running 18x10's on the front without any clearance issues.
