Square setup 19x9.5 Ace Alloys

Trying to nail down what I need for a square setup, I think this will work from what I have read but want to confirm. I'm on eibach lowering springs (coupe if I remember right)

285s all around on 19x9.5s with 45mm offset.
As far as I can tell this would poke 11mm more than stock in the rear and 12.5 mm more in the front.
Main concern is the 285s up front.
Ace alloy has their AFF06 and they have a lot of offset options for square setups in their dropdown menus, however the highest they seem to go is 45mm.

Here is a craptastic photochop of what they would look like.

285’s will fit up front with the right offset.

19” x 9.5” sedan rears plus a 15mm spacer for up front very nicely with 285’s. Very flush and no rubbing on lowered sedan.

These would be equivalent to a 9x9.5 sedan rear on the front with an 11mm spacer, I take it that would work ok as far as clearing suspension components?

I would say so. A 15mm spacer would affectively push the wheel/tire 4mm further out/away from the suspension.

4mm = .157”. So barely over an 1/8”.

But… A wise man once said wheel fitment is a millimeter game…

I ran sedan rears on the front of my sedan with 285/35/19 lowered and not once at any point did they rub.

This certainly isn’t the first time this has ever been done on a sedan, in fact this thread here was posted some time ago with some insight and a bit of “how to” and it certainly gave me enough “it can be done” motivation to do take this little project on. National Speed: 2009 Cadillac CTS-V -...

I also know that there are quite a few members who have 295/35/19 square set ups and have no problems.

If I was going to run a square setup it’d be 295/35/19’s all around.

Awesome thanks. I should be good to go then even with 295s yeah?

I have sedan rears up front with 285’s and a 10mm spacer. If I remember right, you’re in Nashville. I work downtown. You can see mine in person if you want.

Just looked at your build thread, are you running any kind of spacer in the back?

No, but it would look better with some. I just haven’t bought any yet.
