might have found my wheels

Ok so for those that don't know me or what I drive . I'm riding in a 03 f50 cima .... well workin on the full conversion. I just bought an impul kit i know it has mixed feelings on this site but I really liked how it looked and if you've seen the axis F50 then you will prob agree it has great potential. I know it looks a little sporty for true full out vip but then again the F50 is a lot more rounded then then most choice platforms but I hope when I'm done I'll have a home here. Now anyways back to the wheels I may have got my hands on a set of 19x9 +42 offset and 19x10+ 35 offset Allstadt Riverside 3 peice step lip wheels. I'll try to post pics when I get them and hope to hear what you think

Axis F50 did not have an Impul kit, it had the Wise Sports kit. There is another user with the Impul kit on here, looks good.

Offsets on your wheels aren't low enough for the F50. If you like them, great, but I'm telling you right now, when you put them on your car, you won't. I wouldn't even run that on my GS.

I was thinking about getting spacers to help what offsets would you suggest

it would take some serious spacers. i would say if going with those widths to look for something at least in the +10 to +20 range.

There are a few q's running around with negative offsets. You need to be WAY lower in the offsets.

from talking to widebody i've gathered that theres not at much room for wheels as one would think on an f50. he compared them to gs fitments. i think a lot of it had to do with lack of camber adjustment. even then those offsets are on the weak side.

of course, anything will fit... if you make it.

0-+20 at the most, for the same sizes you are looking into? Something around there.

I'd say it all depends on how far you're willing to go. Are you willing to shave/roll/pull fenders or want to keep them stock? Do you want a lil/mid/a whole lot(which would require aftermarket camber kits) negative camber? Do you want to stretch the tires moderate/crazy/tire is barely on the bead and is gonna pop off soon? Are you going for a simple, clean, exe type of look? Or an aggressive, mad fitment vip look? ....or something in between? Alot of questions come into mind...I usually go w/ what wheel design I want, determine how aggressive i want it, then I check to see my options as far as whats needed to make it fit....and to see if its within my budget (which unfortunately my current project-ucf30- is not).

I say, get the wheel you really want (instead of a "good deal") because you might not be able to sell it for remotely what u bought it for...which in the long run, you'll end up paying more later on down the road. ..but that's just my opinion.

Offset on F50 is way higher than on Y33. F50 offset is like Lexus offset. Should look good, but definitely you'll need spacers.

offsets

Just thought you might be interested, these are not 3 piece wheels so I had a limited choice. These are 20x10 wih a 35 offset. The lip is flush with the fender, the car has not been lowered in the back yet....hopefully this weekend. The fronts are 20x8.5 and would only need a small spacer to reach the lip but i am happy with the fitment. I am going for aconservative look clean withut too much fender pull if any at all. Good luck. By the way unless your slammed on air 19's will be to small and you will probably be unhappy with the wheel gap, especially with springs.
