Wazup peeps! I'm trying to find the absolute best 19' rim size for my TC. I already have my rims picked out. I did a search to look for pics of 19's on TC's, but I couldn't get a consensus on the offset to achieve that deep dish look. I know what size I want, 19x8 up front and 19x9's in the back. For the front, it seems that a 19x8 with a +35 offset is a good selection. But since I want a staggered look, I don't know what the back is going to require. 19x9 with +40, or +38. So, if those of you with 19's can answer the following questions, I would be grateful.

1) What is your Offset?

2) Do you have a staggered look, or even all around?

3) What is the width of your 19's?

4) What is your drop?

and MOST important...

5) Do you rub? If so, how bad...front or back.

If you can provide a pick of your car for visual representation, I would be delighted.

 

Now I know there are plenty of you with 19's on your ride.

 

I have Axis Hiros 19x8.5 w/35mm offset on all for corners covered in 225/35/19. I was dropped on Tein S-Tech but rubbed to much in front so switched to Tien H-tech and have no problems now. I would say on a 19x9 you will need a 45mm offset to not rub the fender lip. I have that issue with 8.5 with 35mm offset using the S-Tech.

Here is a Photo of my car with the S-tech.

 

That's one route I have gotten right so far. I have H-Techs.

 

The best looking rims I've seen so far are the TRD 19's.

Although the ones in the picture above look great as well.

 

^^^I already have the rims picked out. I need sizes of peoples and if they are rubbing or not.

 

Do you think I could get by on a +40 or possible +38mm offset for the rear? I think I will go with 19x8 w/35mm offset in front.

 

Usinga 9 inch wide rim I am unsure a 40mm will fit with out at least rolling the fender lip.

 

Will a 19x8 w/35mm in front and a 19x9 w/35mm in back produce a staggered look?

 

That depends on what the rim looks like. i.e. is the rear lip larger than the front.

 

Wait, the size you get them in determines whether the rear lip is going to be larger than the front. They don't make rims in sets of two with the back lips larger than fronts. They just make sizes, and you pick the different sizes to create a stagger look.

 

Most companies will tell you the lip size for the width of the rim. Axis and TSW do that I know for sure.

 

I might have to give up on the staggered look and just go with what I know. The sizes posted on one particular website they had available was...

19x8 w/32 offset

19x8.5 w/35 offset

19x9 w/32 offset


So, I think my only option is the 19x8.5 w/35 offset

 

Called WheelsBoutique and that guy was like they only come with a 35mm offset for a 5x100 bolt pattern in the 19x8's. I'm like Oook. Then I called another place and the guy was like you can get them custom to any offset you want. Different answers everytime.
