Original car specs are:

Front: 18x8 ET47 225/40
Rear: 18x8.5 ET50 255/35

Style 193 wheels are:

Front: 18x8 ET34 225/40
Rear: 18x8.5 ET37 255/35

Does anyone have any experience with this set up or know if they have any rubber due or negative affects on the handling due to the -13 in offset?

The rims you mention are the exact same width and are really just gonna poke out 13mm more than the original car specs. Basically the width of an average thumb. It should hardly make any difference. It would be the equivalent of added a 13mm spacer which is fairly common to reduce the gap from fender to wheel.






Everyone need to start using this:
