    Thank you for that site. I made these comparisons against my stock setup and new and between a "0" offset and the "-19" offset that the rims i want have. Any comments or thought about fitment?

    -19 offset and a 9.5" wide rim is going to make your rim stick waaaay out.

    These wheels stick out 139.5mm (about 5.4") from the face of the hub.

    Factory wheels are 7" wide with a +38 offset.. they stick out 51mm (about 2") from the face of the hub

    What does this mean for you?

    you will have a very wide arc while turning the steering wheel. they will not fit at factory height with any sort of oversized tire. factory size tires will not fit on a rim that wide. you will have to lift and cut your fenders considerably. check Tom4Brens gallery for an idea of how much they will stick out and how much you will need to cut. if you plan to put 315 tires on there.. well you will need to probably lift around 5 inches and cut away most of your fenders
