Largest Rims for FD?
I was curious what is the largest rims you can put on a FD.
Also would a 19 x 8.5...39 offset work for the rear or even in the front?

That would work in the rears but 19s are really only for show cars IMO. 18s are also too large unless you want/need to run really wide tires, like 285/30s.
Also, a 19 will be easily damaged due to the extremely short sidewall that will be required.
These aren't Escalades, man!

8.5 ET 39 in back would look stupid. Use at least 10mm spacers to get it right. I use 8.5" all 4 corners and ET 34 with 6mm spacers on the rear. no problems at all even on track.

Oh man, that is ugly. I think I am going to stick with 17's. Because of cheaper tires and will certainly weigh less than 18's. If you buy the same style of rims of course.

Alba "Battle" is such a fierce name for such barely-functional hunks of metal. I think they should change the name to Alba Shiny Slouch or something like that. Or maybe they were talking about "battling" to get up the driveway without tearing your fenders off.

These 19"s don't look that bad. I think they look pretty good actually

The tires have the same sidewall ratio of 18"s
And they're for sale too!
