What's up guys, I'm looking into a set of OEM gallardo wheels for my D3 A8L. The wheels are 19x8.5 with a 41 offset in the front and 19x11 with a 55 offset in the rear. My question is, is there going to be any rubbing issue with either the tire or wheel out rear? Will I need spacers out rear to clear the inner fender and strut towers? You guys think this is going to be to wide for the rear, or would I need to roll the fenders out? I would take some measurements but I'm in Afghanistan right now so that makes it kinda hard. I have heard of guys running 10.5s out rear.

Second you think this is going to be to much of a staggered set up and look odd?

Thanks everyone for your advise, and have a safe and happy 4th of July!!!

Assumming your car is Quattro, you will need to keep the rolling diameter within 3%.
That pretty much limits you to 255/40x19 front and 285/35x19 (- 0.66%) or 295/35x19 (+ 0.36%) rear
They should fit, but you will need to pick your offset.
You should be able to get to ET30 on the front with 255's, and ET45 on the rear with 295's, possibly even wider.

Ya fronts are 235/30R19 and 295/30R19 in the rear. I'm aware of the rolling dia needs to be within 3% to not throw off the Quattro system. It's a fitment issue that I'm more worried about. I need to do the math on the tires to see if I'd need to swap them out. Also what spacer size I'd need to run.

Thanks for your thoughts and info.

I can tell you without looking that a 235/30x19 won't work with a 295/30x19! (I did calculate it though, and they're 5.46% out)
295/30x19 would need a 255/35x19 on the front and even then both tyres are 5% under profile, which will throw your speedo out (it'll read over/faster) by about 8.5%.

The offsets as they stand I'm pretty certain will interfere with the hub carrier at the front and back. You'll need at least a 10mm spacer to get near the offsets I mentioned before that I think will fit.
What's the stud pattern of the Lambo wheels? You may need hub adapters, which will space the wheels out anyway...

The bolt pattern are 5x112. I was most likely going to change out the tires and sell them when I got them.
