I can't find a cohesive answer in this thread...
I currently have 2 options I'm looking at:
19x8.5 +42mm offset
18x8 +40mm offset
Can someone match tire sizes to these that don't rub? I don't plan on lowering the car which is why I want to go 19" to fill the well a little more.
If the offset is too much on the 19" what is an acceptable offset for this size?

New Rims Inquiry
I am getting new rims and new tires for my Blue 2008 GTS and was looking for advice. I got myself set on Falken Torgue 5's. They are 18x7, Lug Pattern: 5x114.3, offset: 42mm and center bore 73.2mm.
http://www.falkentire.com/Wheels/Pas...els/Torque-5-2
The questions I have are:
1. Will they fit?
2. How do I make them hub centric and what is the cars actual center bore size?
3. And what size tires should I get? I'm going with the General UHP 215/45-18. Is this a good choice that will fit my rim snugly and not have any overhang or stick out beyond the lip of the rim.
Any advice is greatly appreciated as I am an auto noob. Thanks.

18x7 is stock rim size.. and 215/45 is also stock tire size.. so thay will all fit fine.. and if ur taking them to a tire shop to get them installed they should be able to let u know if u need hub rings or not..

Hey guys, my 1st post here. where I live, there are other names for the equip type, for example GTS here is the Instyle, we got 4 equip types. Ok my question is, for some aftermarket rims with these specs 18x7.5 +44, do the stock tires fit? 215/45/R18(to us, stock tires are Yokohama Advan A10). Another question, if the stock tires fit on the aftermarket specs, does the tire stretches a bit, because i want that
Thanks!
Thanks!
