That user has not been active in over two years; had to go back a few pages just to find him. To answer your question, 8.5 wheels with that offset fit pretty flush as pictured.

i saw that LOL but i’m so desperate i keep finding different combos of offset/spacers/ride height that i love!!

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed so can anyone tell me if 1) these will fit and 2) are they worth the asking price. I apologize I advance if my post isn't up to standard. I'm at work 😆

5 lug could mean 5x100, 5x114.3, 5x108, 5x112. So right off the bat with the little bit of information provided, it would be hard to say if they would fit.

Thanks, I ended up buying these: oz racing ultraleggerra (sp?) 18" 5×108

Konig Freeform 18"x9" et38 in stunning Radium Bronze with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 255/40r18 tires. A touch of poke. Decided to go a different direction so these are coming off the car with ~10/32" tread left and very low miles. They look excellent and ride even better:

Some negative camber will fix that poke.

It absolutely would. I had planned run dedicated summer/winter setups and lower/camber, but decided to keep it mostly stock and stick to one set of wheels. For spirited daily driving, the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ and now the AS4 never let me down traction-wise and are good through Kansas City winters.

I've missed not having 5 spokes, so I've pieced together this set over the last 5 months. So far real happy with how they turned out. Much easier to clean compared to my RPF1's and Assetto Gara's

• Brand Wheel with specs - Speedline / BBS 550 - 18x8.5 et42
• Brand Tire with specs - Firestone Firehawks Indy500 255.35

My god those are gorgeous 😍

Ford Performance Matte Grey 19"x8" wheels (flow formed, yay)
Michelin Pilot Sport All-Season 4 235/35r19 tires

At 55mm offset, I need some spacer help when I can verify whether or not the pockets on the rears will accomodate studs. They look bangin' though, and this finish doesn't get very brake dusty.

Here are a couple more shots to show how well tucked they are...

What kind of suspension do you have?

looks great!, any lower springs planned? and yes, need some spacers, mybe 25mm due the pockets?

Well, not sure what is gonna happen with these now. I must have hit a pothole just right... Went to the tire shop because the steering wheel had some jitters, and when they were rebalancing they found one was bent. Didn't think I hit anything hard enough to bend a friggin' wheel. Using Ford's recommended tire size, too, so not sure how much I trust Ford's "flow formed" product anymore.

I have the same set of wheels using 235/35/19 tires, but using 40psi - hope to not hit any pothole

Do you use spacers? I was looking at adding some with those wheels but couldn't get a confirmation about whether or not the pockets are deep enough to accommodate studs on Garagline-type setups.

Tried with 15mm -> failed
Want to try with 20mm and see results....
But for sure 25mm fit with these wheels pocket deep - mybe it is too much.

for your reference, go to this thread (Got my new rims and tires installed. What an improvement!) post #20

Cool, thanks for posting all of that in that thread. With such little information available it's very helpful.
