Default Wheel specs

I need to buy some 19" roh fury mags for the falcon. Im wondering if they will rub and how bad as it will be lowered to super low king springs later on.

I know the wheels need to be so wide or something so they wont rub.. is that correct? If so what specifications do I need as im going to purchase them off the wheel king over the weekend.

Also anyone had any experience with them?

They are $2300 with falkeen tyres but they now have roh adrenaline in 19" so that might be an option as long as they aint too expensive

If you get 19 x 8 with 35 to 42 offset, you should have no problems with clearance, though the front guard may rub at full lock. Tyres should be 245/30/19s or 235/35/19.

I have seen a set of 5 spoke black centre/spokes, with polished rim/lip. Buggered if I can remember where though. I'll see what I can find.

Try these. Not so much to buy them off ebay, but just the styles you can get.

i just put 19x8.5 on mine and my springs are ultralow Kings.

I had originally put 245 all round but as soon as i drove out of the tyre place it rubbed and i mean badly. so i went straight back and put 235 on the front and no problems since. Yes on full lock it will still rub.

goodluck
