With that size you will be able to run a 275 all around no problem. Max offset? as low as you want

just a question, of course i have to be difficult, but im looking at new rims and im really digging the breyton race GTS in painted black, but 1 theyre made for beemers, and 2 i cant find the bolt patterns and dimensions anywhere. pretty sure they come in 18x8's though. anyone have any experience with them and know if they would fit?

If the bolt pattern for the wheel is 5x114.3 then yes. They also have to be the right dimension of course.

flush on an 8" is probably 0 offset.

275/35 for fitment and handling the 265 will have a little bit better acceleration due to smaller diameter

I fell in love with the look of the Axis Matix thanks to the great picks of it in this forum.

Now the question is what size and what size tires.

I am not really sure I want to go staggered, so would

19x8 35 offset with 245/35R19s be the way to go

or 19x8 45 offset with the same tires?

or better to just use 235/35's all around.

I hate how the stock 225/45 r18s sit so far back into the wheel well and want these to sit a little closer to flush.

Thanks, I had to post again because it seems most are running staggered, and again just not quite sure i want to do that.

^if you want something closer to flush - go with a wider set than 8" - 8.5 at least. Or you could go with a more aggressive offset.

In regards to your question though. I like 245's w/8".

Will they fit without rubbing though with the 35 offset that the rims come in?

I agree I would like 8.5's all around but those rims don't come in 8.5 just 8 and 9.5.

^Are you looking to get the 19's or 18's? If you go with the 19's you can get a +35 offset and it would look nice.
