Default Offset question...

I am thinking about getting the Falken Torque 5s gunmetal for my car.

I am lowered on H-Techs and don't want to rub. So would 19x8, et38, 27.5lbs; or 19x7.5, et42, 25.5lbs be better? I want them to sit as flush with the fender as possible without any rubbing.

Oh, and I think I might run a 225/35/19.

How do you think these would look on a FM?

Thanks...

I think they would look good, but I wouldn't go with 19's.

By the way, I think i saw you at the track last year.

Go with a Falken Tire 235.35.19 they tend to run a little narrow anyway and you get a lot of tire for your money. Let us know if we can help.

ohhhhh Nice choice. From your Advatar you'll be happier with the 18's over the 19's for the weight you'll save.
