Just wondering if anyone can tell me what the bolt spacing and offset is for an 08' coupe. It has stock 16's on it right now but I'm looking to get 18" or 19". Any info on this would be greatly appreciated. If anyone knows the minimum or maximum offset that would help also.

Man,..doesn't anyone utilize the search button anymore. There has been a lot of posting on this topic.

To answer your question though, regardless if you have 16" or 17" wheels the bolt spacing is 5 x 114.3 or 5 x 4.5 Stock offset is +45 (at least on the 3.5 AC w/ 17" wheels). If you get new wheels that have an offset between +35 and +45, you should be good. As for tires, I wouldn't go anywhere past 245 40s if yo get 18"s. Not sure what tire would be good for 19". What I usually do is go to tirerack.com and bring up the AC and checkout different wheel setups. That way you can get an idea of how it would look on your coupe. It even recommends the size tire you should go with.

Generic808 or Darius have posted a lot info regarding this subject. You should try searching on their posts.

Hope that helps.
