Hey Guys.
Brand new here but i already have a question.

What backspacing would i need to run 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 back, with
235/35s up front and 275/30s in the back?

Also the car is dropped about an inch and half from stock.

Thanks:)

I would suggest 5-5.25" on the 19x8.5's and 5.5-5.75" on the 19x9.5's.

I agree. But we can get a 10 back there also.

I will make one suggestion, consider a 19" rear and a 18" front. I posted some pictures of one we just set up with 18 / 19s, came out killer. To me 18 front and nineteen rear is the perfect tire stagger, as long as the aspect ratios are protected, you get the perfect tire / wheel rake

Let me know what wheels your looking at, we have half a dozen brands. We will hook you up.

Yours is much lower Bob (looks hot). The car I posted cannot go any lower, the headers will be kick stands, LOL!

I actually need to swap out my headers too, they're only about 3" off the ground and until I swapped in the 650 lb springs with the DSE frt suspension, I used to leave quite the trail of sparks behind me on occasion. Even at that they're pretty close to kickstands.
