HB29 - BCForged on it's way!

Hiii..

I ended up originally with a dealing from ADV1, which went south when I requested different offsets. They were advising me to go with a super aggressive offset as a "promotion" and I ended up canning the idea of having a ton of poke.

So... Instead I contacted PYSpeed and hooked up with a set of HB29's from BC Forged with matte bronze face and gloss black lips.

I couldn't fathom running a 35 offset in the rear with the ADV1's and having it look "proper".




These are 19x9.5 ET45 / 19x8.5 ET40 with hopefully (havent mount tires yet) 225/35/19 and 255/35/19 Michelin Pilot Super Sport's. I have the option to run a 255/30/19 in the rear if the 55's rub.

Keeping you posted.

Yes they are forged.

They'll be in my hands Fri or Monday.

Have the wheels been test fit yet? I'm thinking of running 18x8.5 up front and 18x9.5 in the rear, with similar offsets (+42 all around). I do plan on bringing my car to a shop for some exact measurements to be taken, but it's always good to hear of similar sizes being mounted.

They'll be mounted the moment I get them! I am excited!

8.5 With that offset will rub in the front,

That's what I'm worried about, not sure if I'd want to spend money to rebarrel the wheels up front, or just run a small spacer. This is again why I'm going to take my car in for measurements.

What I measured up front for perfectly flush would be a 38 offset, 19x8.5". This would have to be a 225 tire as a 235 would rub strut side.

So when we talk about offset, it wouldnt matter if the wheel is 18" or 19" right?

Say et45 for 18 and et45 for 19 will sit the same other then the 19" being bigger?

Offset has nothing to do with the wheel size. However, most people are concern about the offset due to rubbing. 18in will rub less than 19in if both have same offsets and width.(mainly due to a few mm more space between the fender and the tire)

This is basically about the same as his 18x8.5'' et 42. I don't think it'll rub strut side. Someone that's not lowered have done more aggressive (et 35). Check the offset calculator.

Lower offset is fine, I am saying that if you get past the 38mm (38 and lower) you really will start to poke outside of fender. 40mm is very close to strutside on a 8" rim. To the point where a 235 probably won't fit so I am going to run a 225

Like I said, I'm having a shop that does nothing but wheels tires and suspension handle all the measurements to see if they'll be functional, what size tire, if I'll need a spacer in the front etc. I've actually been nervous that the offset isn't low enough to clear the suspension.

I'm running 8.5 ET39 with 225/35x19 fronts and 9.5 ET48 with 255/30x19 rears on mine with no issues at all. In fact the rear could probably take a 5mm spacer and be bang on fitment-wise.

Tyres will also play a part as there are certain brands that run great bit "rim protection" mouldings in the sidewalls which may cause fouling of the arches or the suspension components....

That was the same exact set up I was going for but if I lower, I might stretch my tires.

Well the wheels where held up in customs this week so it looks like weds I'll see the wheels.

When I measured it out with my wheel guy this week it looked like a 48 offset in the rear would have just been perfect. Unfortunately BCForged only let's you go up by 5mm. I saw a post with a set using 45et rears and to me it just looked like to much poke. If you get the chance to order by mm go ahead and get 47 or 48 ET on the rear a with a 19x9.5. From my calculations that will be just perfect for having the wheel completely flush with the fender.

my anticipation is growing and I think that shakes are making it's way into my body. yikes.
