Re: 19" wheels offsets & tire sizes?
There are measurements you can do from the rotor hub to the caliper to determine if the wheels will fit. most manufacturers of custom wheels have a 'bbk' (big brake kit) friendly spec for most wheels. the offsets will remain the same but the hub will be deeper (kind of like oe zr1 rear wheels with the deep lugs) pushing the wheel center outwards allowing for big brakes. If you ask for the biggest lip possible like some people mistakenly do, they may interfere with big aftermarket brakes.

Re: 19" wheels offsets & tire sizes?
The wheels I'm going with are Niche competition series, wheel name is Intake-H82. Spoke with them today and they will work with a BBK. 4-5 week build time so I want to put the order in soon. Really trying to make BG this year. I will also go with Michelin tires, I had PS2's before do I do the same or different?
Robert, the wheel it seams looks somewhat close to the pic you posted. |

Re: 19" wheels offsets & tire sizes?
My 19x11.5 CCW's have +44 offset (8" backspace) I don't remember what offset the front 19x10's are but they were made with a smaller lip so C6 Z06 brakes would fit.

Ricky, The H82s I just looked at are a simpler pattern than what Robert posted. Nice wheels. I would still get them w a flush face to the drum rather than a lip. JMHO. The Pilot Sports should be great. Just make sure they work in the Kentucky rain in May.

Re: 19" wheels offsets & tire sizes?
My comment had more to do w the "look" rather than fitment.
