All that will work fine, if you can find a wheel that comes in both offsets.

Your rear lip will be 10mm deeper, as long as the manufacturer does not change the offset by changing the angle/shape of the spokes.

What wheels are you considering?

Just wondering,...would'nt a 10mm spacer work in the rear so you could keep the same offsets front and rear and be able to rotate your tires?

A spacer will work fine if your goal is to get the wheels/tires to match up against the fenders front and rear, as well as allowing for rotation, as you suggested.

napom's goal appears to be getting a staggered lip look, without having different width tires & wheels for the front & rear.

I think you'll run into rubbing issues with 19x8 +30 on DF's.

I think that with 225/35's on 19x8 +40 front and 19x8 +30 rear you will clear NF210's fine. You might clear DF's, but I'm not willing to say so and then be wrong. If you get DF's and end up rubbing, I'm sure you will be able to find somebody to buy them from you pretty quickly.

sounds good....so with those choice of wheels the lip will be a lil deeper in the rear then..! and the nf's will work fine...which is a better spring, the trd or the nf's

You'll hear that both are great. I have NF's and love them, read this thread to see why:

+1

When I had 17x7 +33 wrapped with 215/55/17 front and rear, I would occasionally rub in the front, but not in the rear when lowered on my DF210s. In addition, my overall tire diameter would have been about 1" taller than the 235/35/19 setup you are proposing.

If we used this setup as the baseline for rubbing on DFs without rolling the fenders, then if you went with 19x8 +30, I say chances are pretty good that you would rub for sure because you will be extending your wheel out another 16mm on top of that. If you went with a 19x8 +40, you will only be extending your front wheels out by only 6mm. Now you might get away with extending your wheel out another 6mm because your overall tire diameter would be 1" less than my old setup. I hope all that makes sense to you...

I was gonna go with the NF's but I wanted a lower stance soooo I said the hell with it and went with the DF's, haha it wasn't a mistake I love them I've had them on for like 3 weeks now and only rubbed once. Not even a hard rub, hardly even noticed, had to ask my girlfriend if the tires rubbed.
napom, the wheel width, offsets, and tire size you want to run will give you even more clearance than jmaeda has... I say go for it!

Maybe I am wrong. But if he runs with a +30 it should rub real bad. It is going to push the wheel out. A +40 pulls the wheel in further under the fender. I am running the +35 and the rear wheels hit. Here is the wheels with the no tires. You can see the +35 is dead flush. So a +30 will push them out further.



I had to run +45 on my tC so they would tuck in there.

For your wheel widths yes (8.5"F & 9.5"R aren't they), but he is looking at 8" front @ +40 and 8" rear @ +30. The narrower wheel widths more than make up for any offset difference.

you will not even see 10mm difference if you're going for the staggered look
