Offset question

Hey everyone, I'm gettin a new set of 5zigen 5ZR's and I was wondering If a 19x9 with and 38 offset would fit the front and if a 19x10 with a 45 offset would fit the rear. Ill probably have to roll the fenders but I am going with a 245/35/19 and a 285/30/19. Thanks for any input

Should work fine. I am considering wheels with a similiar size and offset and I am going to have the fenders rolled just to be sure. What tires are you getting that have both 245 and 285? The only ones I know about are Toyo's. In my opinion, 10 inch rims need 285's

I've done a lot of research and I'm going with the Toyo T1R's because of a friend's reccomendation but the other tires are:


Yokohama Advan Sport
Treadwear 180 / Traction AA / Temperature A / Speed Y
No treadlife and they are expensive

Toyo Proxes T1R
Treadwear 280 / Traction AA / Temperature A / Speed Y
Excellent treadlife and mildly priced

Michelin Pilot Sport PS2
Treadwear 220 / Traction AA / Temperature A / Speed Y
Good treadlife but most expensive of the five

Pirelli PZero Rosso
Treadwear 220 / Traction AA / Temperature A / Speed Y
Good treadlife but they are almost as expensive as the Michelins

Dunlop SP Sport 9000
Treadwear 280 / Traction AA / Temperature A / Speed Y
Excellent treadlife and mildy priced but noisy

All these tires come in both 285/30/19 and 245/35/19
