19" Wheel Options??

[009]

Was looking at these in 19" 8.5 front & 9.5 rear,using 235/35 front & 275/30 rear tyres, they list BMW fitment, and i found a pic of a GTO with them on [pic] antera-349.jpg [/pic]

has anyone else looked into 19's ??

For the 275's you're going to need to roll the rear fenders otherwise they'll most likely rub, but they'll look awesome!

That was the plan, get 2" more track width plus bigger contact patch of tyre

Then it would be fine

You need to look at greg watson car, he runs 275 rears

Yes,but you need to get the offsets right,otherwise will not clear if use std offsets.Also 18" not 19"

Careful with wheels for a BMW, the offset is different. You may run into arch clearance problems at the rear.

Will, what wheels is he running ??

FYR my new offsets will be;
Front 8.5x19 et38
+16mm outside ¾” ( +4mm inside ¼ “ )

Rear 9.5x19 et 42
+25.5mm outside 1” ( +12,5mm inside ½”

The font of all practical nexperience is panoma, suggest you ask him nicely, I know the supplier of his wheels but Brian will no doubt explain further
