will 19x11.5s rub?

Greetings,

I was wondering if I went with 11.5s in the rear if I would get any rub. I like the ssr gt3s (ref: wheel and tire section) and when I c/w to the hre 547r or 847r I still like them better. The bulk of people running 19s seem to be running 19x11 and I'm wondering if I go with 19x11.5, will I rub. Also, is 19x8.5 the limit for width in the front? Not sure what tires would fit with these. I do know my savings account would benefit greatly. Any thoughts on this one?

TIA,

Geoff

I dont have 19" but I can advise you to get the offsets of these wheels as that plays a big role, also if your car is stock suspension or lowered and you might have to have your fender lips rolled if you are lowered, many guys here with 19" and aggressively lowered that will be able to help you out.

I have 19x11's and 19x8.5 with the 315/235 contis. My suspension is lowered 30mm from stock and there is plenty of room. It really depends on the suspension setup, and the offset of your wheels.
