Default 19x10 for Front on Base?

Hi.

I ordered Forgestar CF10 18x9.5 for front but they've let me know that they don't make CF10 in 18s.

I need to step up to 19s but I'm not sure if I should stay safe and go with 19x9 or go to 19x10. Is anyone running 19x10 for Base in fronts?

Currently, I'm running 18x9.5 +57mm with 275 tires without any issue.

I appreciate your input in advance.

Their 19x9 with a 56-60mm offset will be perfect. Their 19x9.5 or 10" will still stick out about an inch or more with the max offset they offer.

DEEP CONCAVE
19"
19x9.5 offsets from +2 to +42
19x10 offsets from +8 to +48

What he said. ^^^^^^^

I'll pimp my wheels that are for sale now, lol. I have some TSW Interlagos for sale that have just been refinished. They are black and are 18x9 +50 and 19x10.5 +65. Basically the same design as the CF10 and they are very light since they are rotary forged.

$900 shipped

I would stick with the 9.5".

If you go to 10" in the standard (Z06) offset, you would have to run narrow tires (245) for them to not stick out past the edge of the fender.

I have seen people run a stock Z06 size wheel on the front of a narrow body with a narrow tire without any issues.

Thank you guys for the input. Sounds like 19x9 is the way to go. I think Forgestar is recommending +44mm on those. Too bad CF10 is not made with 9.5" with better offset.

jon6.0, thanks for the offer but I've already paid the deposit and I have booty rear fender so I'm getting 19x12s.
