New Wheels....19x8.5 +45 too big? Options

[Davesceli]

I found some sweet looking bbs lm reps, can't afford 5k rims right now, but the only size available is 19x8.5 +45. I know i will need a spacer, my question is would the actual size be too big.

Linea Corse Lemans

I was thinking though they have a couple 18x8 and 18x8.5 sizes in 5x112/120, being that i'm gonna need a spacer could i just get an adapter to change up the spacer and the bolt pattern?

Which is the better plan of action?

And i am going for a hellaflush stance if possible...

thanks

Ha! I havent found any adapter spacers with the right hub ring. Even with the biggest size i seen (25mm) you'll still have 20+offset which IMO wont get you to a HF stance.


A better plan is get rims in 5x100 with 0-15+ offset @ 18x8 cuz any wider would just be too wide for the poor 5s.

if it makes a difference, there won't be a 5s there for too long lol

Hmmm which would be more?? Lets see.....

[(Rims + Spacers) x Camber kits] / Tires per year = $X,xxx

$X,xxx {Equals/Does not equal to} =\= Motor Swap + (Extras + Goodies)

.......but

(you cant afford the rims) =\= (afford Motor Swap)

= No Solution????
