What wheels are those?

Glad I just found this thread in my search. I was driving myself crazy looking for wheels. I wanted to keep the staggered and now I think I was nuts for thinking that. I had already replaced my rear tires with 275/40/19 so I will just do the same up front and be square on the 19x10 E35. Every wheel I was looking at would not fit due to the Brembo's.

19x10 et.35 all around
275/40/19 on all corners.
Perfect

Dumb question but does it have to be exact? Can I use 19x10.5 +40?

That will most likely rub on the strut in the front. Everything is very tight up front; not a lot of room there. Will work if you use a small spacer, maybe 5-8mm. Those don’t need extended studs and are fairly cheap.

I think it will depend on if it clears the front strut.

Would a 20-10 wheel with 1.88 Inches, 48mm off-set work up front with a 275 or 285/35/20?

Too much offset, will rub. Will need a small spacer, at least 8mm.

I really like those Niche Essens in this thread. They have 19x10 +40

19x10 et 40 will work. As I said, I have two sets of wheels, one is et40 and it still clears, but just barely. I was somewhat concerned about deflection and rubbing at high loads, so I've been running that with a very small 5mm spacer. A very small spacer like that definitely has no impact on reliability/safety and you can probably just run it without a spacer and see if that works. If you ever notice rubbing, just add a small spacer.

This looks great!
I had the 19" Niche Essens on my 15GT Staggered.
I think I will take your advice and do the 10" squared with 275 DWS's on my Mach 1 for the winter.
How are the DWS all seasons in the cold?

They work great in the cold and rain.
Never really used them in the snow, so can't comment.
I love these tires and the newer version is probably even better.
