Will 19" SSR GT3 rims fit e92? Offset limit?

I have a friend of mine selling a set of 19" SSR GT3 rims 19x8.5 / 19x10.

Offsets are:

+43 front
+24 rear

They have brand new PS2 tires on them and he is selling rims + tires for only $1800. Its a insane deal if they would fit, but im pretty sure that rear offset is way to aggressive for e92s...or am i wrong?

the font is like an E46 fitment... a little too conservative.

Also, with the SSR, you have to look out for th e disk type. they have 3 different kinds and they all clear different brakes. you might have to try them on to see for sure and if they fit, you might be able to use a spacer in the font and get a nice aggressive look.

....my 2cents from an authorized SSR dealer.

Rear will require fender rolling and camber for an E92 maybe even a 265 rear tire.

it will rub... but with some rounder side profile tires like the Falken FK452 and Toyo T1R, they might fit with "Rolling" Every car is different and when you go that flush, it is a matter of not just wheels but how you car sits with the suspension and all.

You can lower the car and camber it a little and have the 25 fit. But Rolling is easy and painless and the way to go (my personal opinion).

Im dropped on H&R Sports right now and have no issue if i have to roll the fenders for them to fit (fine with me!). Whats the side profile of the Pilot Sports like? Cause those are on the rims and part of the deal..

Sorry... I thought it was 9.5 rear.... the 10 will require a lot more work.

tried a 20 - 10.0 +25 for an E60 before and it would not fit. Not sure about 19 - 10.0+25. I imagine the same.

I think those are about 10mm too aggressive in the rear IMO. I guess you could try to roll your fenders and go with some negative camber, but I don't know if its worth it. That PS makes those wheels look great on your car though.

Are there any rims that compare to the SSR GT3 in looks but will fit the e92 better than SSR's?

Well, it looks like they may make them in E92 offsets...



With an MSRP of $800-900 per wheel I'm not sure if you would want to go with a new set (although you could get them discounted I'm sure) so your other option will be to go with a used set of E46 non-M spec wheels and use spacers. As far as going with a new set I'm not sure what disk type you will need since I'm not a wheel dealer and I have no clue, but just judging by the offsets spec list I would say that they probably have a set to fit the E92, but I'm not sure how close to ideal they will be since they have 3 different types as Julius mentioned. Maybe he can chime in here and teach us both something. Anyway, here is a link to the sizes they offer...

The estorils look very similar to the GT3's, at a lower price too. Depends on how you feel toward iForged though.

Like others have said, you'll have one hell of a time getting the rears to fit with that aggressive of an offset. Otherwise, the SSR GT-3's are great wheels, I had them on my E36 for a while, but from what tirerack told me they have been discontinued by SSR.

Since its your friend that’s selling them see if they'll let you run a test fit, then at least you'll see if there's any hope in hell of getting them to fit.
