Help figuring out offset to square the front & rear wheels

I'm trying to figure out what offsets I will need to square up the front and rear. I will be using 19x11" wheels.

I will be putting on 305/30 r19 tires on all four corners.

Offsets for my stock wheels are: (front) 21x8.5 +38 ; (rear) 21x9.5 +43

When I get home from work tonight I'm going to get under the camaro, do some math, and try and figure it out lol.


I don't care if the tires stick out past the fenders. The important factor is that the rear tires square up with the front tires. Yes, I will be using this camaro at the road course.

The wheels I am looking at are the Forgestar F14's. The F14's in 19x11" have offsets that range from +23 to +55

-----------------

It may come to be that these wheels will not allow me to square up 305/30 r19 tires. If that is the case, what alternative wheels do you recommend?

I like the Forgestar's because they are cheap, light, and look good too.

Well, I'm going to bump this because I could really use some help, advice, ect..

Anyone have any insightful knowledge they can pass to me in figuring out what offsets I would need to square up my front and rear wheels. Measurements I should take?

Any help is appreciated.

I can't help you because I don't have any experience with 19" fitment. But just from comparing other sizes, I don't think it would be possible to put an 11" wide wheel up front!!! That's too wide, I think it would hit on the strut assembly. But didn't you say you were going to be getting your wheels from Nineball (a.k.a. Tony)??? He's the best person (or vendor) on this website to ensure you get the absolute best fitment for your car. Send him a PM, and tell him what you're after, and he will let you know if it is possible or not.
