I am currently looking at a tire and wheel package that consists of the following:

18x9 30mm offset
18x10 40 mm offset
255/45 Front
285/40 Rear

Will I have any issues with clearance or wheels/ tires beyond my fender?

I am running 19 x 9.5 with a 40 mm offset and the wheel/tire combo is flush with the fenders. You should be in pretty good shape.

Alan, would you mind sharing a few different angles of pictures? I'd like to see what 9.5 +40 looks like. I'd really appreciate it.

Since I have never ordered a wheel and tire package I am scared that they will either poke out to far or tuck in to much.

I got my wheels/tires from Discount Tire, told them what I was looking for and they got it right.






I also got a BMR panhard bar to get things lined up just right.

Entaille

perfect. thanks. that helps me confirm what offset range I should target

Good luck finding what you want and be sure to post pics when you get them on.

Why did you purchase the panhard bar?

I bought one from AM, Maximum Motorsports with the spherical rod ends. It is a great bar, light and strong but it transmitted a little more noise than I liked. I replaced it with a BMR bar with the Poly bushings. I am going to sell the MM bar if you are interested.

This may be a newb question but why was the OEM insufficient?
