19" winter set up...what offset?

VinnAY · 07-30-2018, 05:40 PM

I have these tires reason I'm going with a 19" wheel over a 20" wheel and/or tire setup.

BFG Comp2 A/S: 245/40/19, and 275/40/19

I ran these on my Mustang and want to put them on the Camaro for late fall and winter months. What widths should I be looking for and more importantly the offset? I'll only be buying a very low priced wheel and nothing "special" like lite weight or exotic materials etc etc.... budget $800-1000K.

It seems discount tire has better low cost options than tire rack.

*I have these tires and that's what I'm going with.

This worked for me.

Better yet, make your own excel file and punch in your own numbers to determine the effects!

Your All Season tire widths are the same as a base SS has, therefore I'd look in that ballpark for wheel width and offset. Front 8.5" width with offset of 25, and rear 9.5" width with offset of 39 I think are the SS specs.

Tire rack has included the hazard warranty which by itself it awesome. Used it on my old bmw. At that time i think i paid $100 for it or something and had a blow out. I payed for a new tire and they reimbursed me a week later.

Im having a hella time finding widths I can use and wheel I like in 19...I finally found one but it's either 8" or 9.5"...I think I can use the 9.5" for both the 245 and the 275 width...is that gonna look stupid?
