Oooo if your offset is low then i dont think you can bro cuz theres a bolt connecting your back bumper in your wheel well and that wont let you ...you cant even roll it in =/ which sucks cuz i wana go wider but i got to figure out what to do with that bolt

i have a 20x10.5 in the rear but with a +40 offset and i cant fit a finger in there so i can just imagine you cant get a lower offset unless your not gona drop the car that much then MAYBE thats the only way

wont fit. by my calculations, those wheels at that offset will put you about 30+mm PASSED the fender

not even sure fender rolling will do it. either shave the hub at the back of the wheel to a higher offset or cut the fenders and go with flares.

oh and i have no idea if/how it will effect with the brakes

Ok, I have read all of the threads in here and another one on wheel fitment, but one answer I can't find is what is the tC2 hub bore size?

Alright guys... I have a question that I'm struggling with and after reading numerous posts still dont have a solid answer..

For my '12 tC2. I'm going with 19x9.5's all the way around. I'm currently running the D2 coilovers on stock rims. I have the option to either go with 22 or 40 offset. I prefer the tucked look but don't want to go too extreme on the stretch to make the tires fit in the well. I also definitely prefer the concave look of the rim versus the flat stock look... I have no problem rolling the fenders but haven't done that yet... I'm considering running a 235 or 245 series tire...

In your opinion(s) which offset would give the better stance, and also allow for clearance with the drop? Do I have to have any concerns with the backspacing and allowing enough room for the brakes?

Thanks in advance. When I get it done I will definitely put up some pics...

well if your looking for the tuck look go with +40 offset, thats what i have and im tucking...+20 would bring the wheel out more but either way your going to have to roll your fenders with that stance bro

+40 will tuck +22 will stick out

+40 u might need to fender roll the front, maybe by like an 1" only though

k0ntr0lled speaks the truth

I appreciate the input. I've ordered the 40 offset so as soon as I get them on I'll post up some pics... And the next decision is which tires to get... Here's to getting deeper into this addiction of automotive modification

I went with the Five Axis R5:F... I like the 5 spoke design and I wanted to get some fat rubber in the back so the 9.5's sounded like the best bet. I was thinking running 225's or 235's up front and going 245's or even 255's on the rears. Based on the size chart that one of the guys put up I should still be able to tuck the rears on those sizes but I'm pretty sure I'll have to roll the fenders all the way around...

Its a bad pic but here's just after I finished installing the D2's. Not even close to slammed but I didn't want to go too low until I got the new rim/tire configuration...
