Wheel fitment 19 inch
« on: February 06, 2016, 01:21:32 am »
Hi just after a bit of help as from looking on the internet so far I seem to be reading mixed results.

I'm looking at getting a set of OEMS strom alloys which are 19 inch 8.5J with 225 35 tyres and ET 45.

My car is lowered on eibach storyline springs which from what I remember lowers the front 30mm and rear 40mm I think.

Will the alloys and tyres in question with that offset and size fit okay with no rubbing issues ?

Cheers for any help that can be given is much appreciated

As a reference, BBS VZ are a really nice fit, I'm 30mm down but would handle a much bigger drop no problem.

Have a look here, I've put in the VZ measurements against your 19s, and it comes out pretty much identical...

In short, go for it.
