    Just ordered new F14's.. wrong offset?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So.. I didn't pay much attention to the offset they built the wheels with cause he said "it's right". And everywhere I read everyone is running roughly a +28-30 offset right?
    They built mine F +31 and R +21 . It's for a 15 S' .. is this right? Maybe I missed it somewhere but I never read anyone staggering their offsets

    Staggering offsets is extremely common on these cars. Its staggered widths you want to avoid.

    They are 10.5's. Ok.. was kinda panicking for a second lol.

    My car isn't lowered so I'm guessing I should stick with 275/30/20 ? seems to be the consensus

    I don't like ET21 and/or 275/30 for stock height.

    Poke at stock height is not a great look to start with, and when you add stretched tires at stock height, its just not a good combo. I guess its time to lower Either way 10.5 ET21 is super aggressive. I'd much prefer around ET27 rear. Here is 20x10.5 ET30 on 275 with a 3mm rear spacer

    I agree with Mops - it's going to poke with et21 and stretching the tires is not a good look. I'm running et28 and i'm flush running 295's

    What I meant was does Mean Machine have any pics of 295/30/20 on his 10.5" rim. I'd like to run the same size if the S5 is the same configuration as the RS5. If the tires are to big then I'll go 275 all around

    Ferrada satin black looks spot-on.

    Slick ride Mean Machine. What's your ET? I ordered ET 27 thinking I may get 295 instead of 275. Is the RS wider?

    I can only speak for myself - it does not rub - 1 inch clearance between fender and tire.
