Performance Street/Track Fitments
ARC-8 // Front: 19x11" ET11 with 305/30-19 tires // Rear: 19x12" ET41 with 325/30-19 tires
These fitments are effective for both performance oriented street cars and weekend track warriors. The suspension type, alignment settings, and tire brand/size can be changed accordingly to work for either scenario.
Square Setups
Recommended for most types of street and performance driving. Allows proper front-to-rear tire rotation to extend tire life & improve handling balance.
- Front and Rear: 19x10” ET20 with 285/35-19 tires
- Direct fit
- 275/40-19 or 275/35-19 tires can also be used as a direct fit
- Front: 19x11” ET11 - 305/30-19
Rear: 19x11” ET35/43 - 305/30-19- On models equipped with the bulkier MRC suspension, it is important to note that if you dial in camber at the spindle, you may have inner strut clearance issues up front. 3-5mm spacers would be needed at that point. If you dial in camber with adjustable camber plates, no spacers required.
- This is an aggressive fitment for the 5th gen. Negative camber, via plates, required up front to limit poke. Z/28 flares recommended.
Staggered Setups
Maintains stock-like handling characteristics, tires can only be rotated left to right. Maximizes both front and rear tire width.
- Front: 19x10” ET20 with 285/35-19 tires
Rear: 19x11” ET35/43 with 305/30-19 tires
- Direct fit

Track/Race Fitments
ARC-8 // Front: 19x11" ET11 with 305/30-19 tires // Rear: 19x11" ET43 with 305/30-19 tires
These no-compromise fitments are ideal for track/race cars. They rely on aggressive negative camber specifications since you'll be using all available real estate under the fender arches to accommodate these wide wheels.

Additional Fitment Information
Steering knuckle clearance
Certain widths and offsets in the 18” diameter will require you to grind a small portion off of the front steering knuckle. Below are some pictures of the problem areas. This is only an issue with wider 18” wheels as the inside lip of 19” wheels will fit over the top without issue (click images to enlarge).
