Could you pm me pricing for a set of FR4s? Looking at a 20x10.5 but not sure what offset either.

I see the recommendation for '16 2SS is (2) 20x9 And (2) 20x10.5 for the Ferrada FR4 Matte Bronze w/ Gloss Black Lip on your company website. What are the offset options you recommend with this setup And how can I keep it as close to stock as possible. Is there and advantage to moving from my stock 20 inch rims to the 19s you offer instead of the 20s?

Good questions.

1. Recommended sizing

20x9 ET 20
20x10.5 ET 38

2. The fitment they do is more aggressive then factory due to the concavity these wheels achieve so they will not be tucked in like the factory wheels, but they will not poke and cause issues. You can easily use the factory 245/275 tires as well.

3. no Advantage unless you want a fatter tire. I recommend keeping it at 20s for optimal fitment.

Thanks for getting back to me so fast. That sounds good. From a driving or engineering standpoint, is the difference of 5 mm for the front offset significantly meaningful? Will it make any noticeable difference in the way my car tracks, the steering feel, the handling, or the ability of Stabilitrack to function at an optimal level? Or is 5 mm pretty much negligible? If I do use the stock tires, at least until they're worn out when I may switch sizes, will the lip or any part of the rims stick out past the edge of the tire? 6 gen visibility combined with some of the rough streets and poor lighting in the awesome city of Houston keep me paranoid about scratching the lips on curbs and such (especially when my wife occasionally has to drive it). Finally, if the stock tires will leave the lip exposed, will I be able to fit tires that will stick out far enough to protect the lip without causing in issues or rubbing?

5 mm is minimal so you no, its not as if you are switching to a massive contact patch variation or width variation to feel it.

The factory tires may work, later on you can always switch to a wider tire upwards of a 275/295 for instance for the fitment.

The factory tires sit dead even with the wheel they will not overbuldge so its always useful to keep in mind being careful when driving.

Has anyone seen FR1 - Silver on a white 2016 2SS? I want the 20x10.5 front and 20 x 11.5 rear. I am also looking for the right tire/size. I like the look of the Blue 2014 with bronze on this site, but I would love to see the look on mine before purchasing. Some sites say these sizes of wheels do not fit, but I have seen them out there. If anyone knows of alterations that need to be done for fitting please let me know. Paul, you may know the details.
