Thanks Cionide! You truly are the SL XB2 wheel and tire fitment guru.

Thanks Fred. Standard fitment is no problem, but so many owners are now looking toward super aggressive offsets and stretched tires that I find helpful recommendations very difficult. If owners are going to push the limits for excessive offsets and rubbing vs. clean fitment then they should consider themselves on their own regarding trial & error fitment.

The only advice I'd offer to those folks is to not do it. Clean fitment is the way to go.

Aggressive isn't all that tough, but there's a lot of determining factors. It does take some work, but you can fit decently aggressive wheels. Suspension has a lot to do with it, too.

I know it can be done, I just don't have the personal experience to make recommendations that either I can't be sure will fit w/o rubbing, or I don't feel is safe for a daily driver.

Understandable! I can help out with relatively aggressive! 19x9.5 +25mm rear and 19x9.5 +45mm on front, plus DF210's are running great! Mild pull on the rear and flipped fender liner on the front. 235/35R19's all around! Rubs a little on the rear fender when pushed on higher speed curves.
