Anyone have work vsxx?

I am getting these rims next week from f1motorsports. Was wondering what setup is the best for these rims (such as tire size, offsets, etc.)? Any thing else i should know before buying?

What year is your car? if you have the 05+ calliper is a little bigger and if you have a Brembo then you'll definitely need a spacer.

Mine is:
19X9.5 32+ = 3" Lip
19X10.5 29+ = 4" Lip

I have an '06 non sport coupe. The guy at the shop said to get 23 and 18 offsets. Is that good? Does offsets affects the size of the lip?

Which guy? Call Chris at F1 Motorsprots and he'll guide you. A shop told me that 27+ Front and 28+ Rear will work but I insist for verification. After emailing Work Japan itself it turn out it wont work. I haven't seen any VSXX that is lower that 27+ offset. VSXX Wheel has a flat surface and doesn't have much of a curve on the face, Volk SF Winnings has more of a curve and that is why you can even get away 17+.

Call Chris and he'll hook you up. Based on Chris Calcuation, Work VSXX with 29+ offest gives you more lip than a 17+ offset on Volk SF winnings. Oh I'm by no means expert on wheels just MHO and from people I've talked too.

Edit:
Also what size are we talking about here? did they guy gave you that offset with 19X9.5 Front and 19X10.5 rear? Size/length/Brand of wheel matter when deciding what offset will work

Yeah the sizes were 19x9.5 front and 19x10.5 rear toyo. He wasn't too sure of what offsets. First he recommended the offsets similiar to yours, then he lowered the offsets. I like the way yours look, so i'm going with what you have. Thanks for the help man.

Just a side note, if I was to do it again, I would've gotten the 285 rather than 275. I'm not sure about the front but what ever is the next size 265 maybe? . 275 is to stretch and looks to round on the edges for me.
