You mentioned running 275's on the rear, is that a 30 series or a 35? Once again guys, thanks for your help!

I have the following wheel fitment :

front: 19 x 8 +31 et 235/35/18
rear: 19 x 10 +31 et 275/30/19

Keep in mind, my set-up is very aggressive, and my vehicle has been lowered via adjustable coilovers . However, prior to this, I experimented with different wheel
sets, along with different suspension configurations. With that said, I can tell you from experience, if you're using a 10 inch rear wheel, I recommend targeting an offset between +40 to 45 . As far as the fronts are concerned , depending on the look or stance that you're trying to achieve, with an 8 inch wheel I would recommend offsets ranging from +38 to 40 or so .
