Default 19x9.5 33mm

Is 19x9.5 at 33mm with a 275 tire too drastic to run on the fronts or rears? I also have a 19x9.5 at 40mm, and 45mm option... I just don't want it hanging out too far and looking like an off-road tonka toy. I just need help... All of the sizes for the model I want are sold out at every outlet and the manufacturer has not reached the amount to make a new batch.

Nobody can tell me of the options I listed which will sit the most flush on a 19x9.5 rim??? The options again are 33mm, 40mm and 45mm... :-\

Itll poke out. My rpm505 9.5 with 38mm offset was flush on my SS. 40 should be good on your Bird.

Thank you!! I'm pulling my hair out because I didn't expect every single outlet I could find to be sold out of the measurements I wanted, and the manufacturer not even being able to give an ETA. I'm paranoid that it will look awful with it being an aftermarket BMW rim lol

This is my SS with my RPM 505s. Tire is a 295/30/19. As you can see its pretty flush. It was a 38 or 40mm offset. IIRC It was +38mm.







Birds also have a slightly larger wheel well. Also my car is lowered about 2" wheels were also aftermarket BMW rims.

Bolted right up. Ran them for 10k or so. Only sold them because I got. Good deal on some Fikse FM5s.

Awesome, thanks! I'll be running the same 275's that I have on my current wheels which are sadly rotting away. They haven't been produced in a number of years for this bolt pattern so I am literally guessing the off-set... Which I believe is 38mm all around lol

oChristiano I have a question for you. My Trans am is lowered 1.75 inches. Think 19inch rpm 505s will fit fine with 295-30-19? Buying them soon do reply ASAP please!

Just saw this, same set up I ran. Already posted in your other thread. Your Bird actually has bigger fenders you might not have to roll your fenders as much.
