Greetings... I have a simple question...

I am going to get a set of 19" rims for my '8. I know that I have to keep the offsets to as close to the stock ET+50 as possible. So I have narrowed it down to two options:

Option 1: Yokohama Advan AVS Model 5 19x8J PCD 114.3x5 ET +45

Option 2: Yokohama Advan Connoisseur No. 51c 19x8.5 PCD 114.3x5 ET+44

They will be fitted with Goodyear F1 GSD3 235/35/19's (the same rolling radius, obviously).

Now, my question is this: I'm fairly certain that these wheels will not rub on the bodywork or any suspension components, however, will these wheels catch on the brake calipers with offset I've specified above?

Many Thanks.

they wont hit the brakes, since the offsets are lower than stock. since you're not staggered you could go as low as probably +40...the rears can take 30's i think.

i love advan's though...i want either those connoisseurs or the rs's

your fine with those offsets. but u should try to get some low offsets. possibly around +30ish i have the super advans as u can see on my avatar. i would love to see the avs model 5 on your car. oh man. those rims are HOTTTT i love them .
