Newspeed rims wider than OEM. Will there be issues?

[rysario]

Greetings!

New to the forum so apologies if posted elsewhere.

I'm looking to purchase new rims and tires for my R and I am curious if I will have issues with the new rims that I want being half-inch wider? Any rubbing? Will the turn radius be impacted?

OEM "Talladega" Rims are:
18x7.5, 51, 57.1CB

The Neuspeed rims I am considering are:
19x8.0, 45, 57.1CB (and considering Michelin Piot Sport 4s 235/35/R19 tires)

Suggestions on alternate rims that look and perform great on an MK6 Blue R?

Thanks!

8.5" is a pretty common with for our cars (I personally run 18x8.5 et45). So 8" should fit perfectly fine. A 8" et45 has the same inner clearance as the stock size/offset, but sticks out 12mm more than OEM.

Here is a good offset calculator that I have used for years.
