Waaaaay back in September on post #355, I showed the images of what the difference between 19x8.5 +20 and +40 look like. It is substantial. The +40 is a much flatter face.

Signature Wheel 19x8.5 +20

I also noted that the rears on this Alfa would have the same face as 19x8.5 +25. The front 18x8 are more concave than what is being offered of 8.5" +40.

These are VS Forged VS08 19x8.5(?) +30 front and rear from @roguenode 's car. It probably isn't the best angle, but I can't imagine choosing to have the wheels 10mm further in than this. Here I'm trying to get 10mm further OUT (8.5" +20). The red/bronze and wheel look great! I just want more flush & concave.

In case it helps, here's a few more pics of 19x8.5 +30:

@ppower I would be 100% in for 19x9+25 if they'll do bronze.

I switched my order from 19x9.5 when they finally became avail. only to find out they aren't shooting them in bronze due to low demand.

So probably going to be the same answer with a 19x9 in a different offset.

I guess I completely missed that. I absolutely need bronze. @torparts what color are you in for? I imagine that once this first wave of wheels get installed, it is going to generate some demand. Looks like I need to check on the color, but let's assume (yeah yeah, I know about assuming) we can get it for now. It all carries more weight if they are approached knowing there are orders just waiting on them. Just follow this pattern to include your desired finish of black, grey, or bronze.

@Taid_87 I don’t see why not since they now aren’t including shipping. I’ll contact them to let them know we have 4 commitments for 4 sets of bronze 19x9 +25 within just a couple of days. If they have another hoop to jump through to get bronze, I guess we’ll find out.

Frankly, I’m surprised that the 8.5” didn’t get any traction so far. This may work well because as I pointed out in September, they already have the design for the 19x9 +25. They just have to drill for 5x114.3 instead of 5x108. Evasive doesn’t open for 2 more hours, so I’ll contact them around my lunchtime and report back what I find out.

Interesting to see how everyone wants the T-S5 over the T-R10.

Has anyone tested a 19x9 +25 with a tire wider than 245? The wheel is going to be pushed almost a full inch outwards, and unless you're lowered, it seems like you're going to have a bit of wheel/tire poke going on.

Yep, likely will require either fender rolling or lowering. I am going with the latter and just got a text that my UP Moderate P3D springs have been delivered!
