When you guys say 19x11 +22, the "+22" is the offset of the wheel, correct? Yes But then I see some people say they use spacers as well. I thought buying a custom wheel with a custom offset removed the need for spacers? Because not all wheels come with the offsets that one requires therefore you need a spacer. I never recommend spacers when doing after market wheels but to some, they rather take the chance.
If stock rear is 19x10 +30 then a wheel that is 19x10 +10 with a 20mm spacer would be the same, correct? No. Its the other way around. The closer the wheel gets to the fender the smaller the + number gets until it reaches zero and then starts going into -. So for your example the wheels would be a +50 to start and then end up with +30 after the 20mm spacer.
So you either run stock 19x10 +30 and 20mm spacer to get a final offset of 19x10 +10 to be close to flush, or for example: buy a aftermarket wheel that 19x11 +20 which will give you almost the same result as running a 22.7mm spacer. Yes no maybe so?
Thanks for the help in advance!
