The wheels are 19x9 ET25 and yes I am running a very small (5MM) spacer in the front - this is purely for aesthetics and is absolutely not needed - it's just that even at 50 this guy (Me) likes my fitment very flush . So with spacer my effective ET on the front is now 20. I have a set of 10mm spacers in the garage and at some point when I have a little time to spare I'm going to test fit the 5mm on the rear and the 10mm on the front - I think it's going to be a little too aggressive for me and likely poke a bit - but it's worth the 20mins or so it'll take me to try Hope this helps |

If anyone needs an HRE contact (at HRE) drop me a PM - when I purchased I ended up checking stock etc directly with HRE and then used a forum sponsor for the purchase once I had everything figured out (I paid the forum sponsor and then simply had them cut a PO to HRE).
This ended being the best approach for me because I was initially getting a lot of conflicting info from resellers across the country |

So while I am no expert on these things I'll give you my thoughts (assuming your ET is 25) 275 on the rear? likely not an issue my 255's are far from rubbing so I would think an additional 10mm outward and inward of tire width will not be an issue 255/35/19 fronts? this will be a non issue this is what I am running on the front with a 19x9 - that said your tire will balloon a tad bit more vs mine but nothing to worry about And should I still get spacers for the rear tires with the increased width? I wouldn't bother with thinking about spacers until you get your wheels/tires on and then decide what looks/works best for you - spacers will be a matter of aesthetics not function (meaning what is your subjective vision or want for a flush fitment) If you have any interest in looking at my setup before you finalize any decisions - you are welcome to come take a look at my car (I am by the HB pier). Drop me an PM if you'd like Hope this helps |

Looks perfect and a great looking wheel. Just ordered a set of BC Forged wheels for my car.

Keeping in mind that my wheels are 9" wide with an effective front ET of 20 and rear ET of 25...Your 8.5" wheels ET 40 will (when compared to my setup) retract by 26mm in the front and 21mm in the rear. That said your tire is going to balloon a bit more (6.35MM inner and outer) than mine because your wheel is 1/2" narrower so pushing your wheel out to where mine are would produce a bit more poke. Anyhoo I hope this helps - offset, fitment etc...is so tough to figure out often times - I know it helps to have something to reference and/or try to replicate so I hope i was able to help a bit ps- there are several wheel, wheel/tire calculators out there that you can play around with here is one that I like: https://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Whee...et-Calculator# Last edited by chenry; 11-19-2021 at 01:43 PM..

Do you think the 20x9 would fit 255s without rubbing? What about 245s? |

These were my thoughts; exactly what I was stating in your other thread - the HRE FF10 has a very European design; the liquid metal (silver) color helps to exhibit these features, but if you have the exact wheel in Tarmac (matte black) you loose the definition of the wheel design.

I dealt with HRE direct - confirmed inventory availability etc....and then placed an order with a forum sponsor for the wheels based on the info I received from HRE In that most all (few exceptions) resellers are simply drop shipping from HRE I found the aforementioned to be be the most efficient way to proceed. I initially started my search by speaking with resellers but without exception everyone had a different story to tell me in terms of what would work and what was available etc...which is what drove me to contact HRE directly Drop me an IM and I can share the HRE contact with you that helped me. Hope this helps |
