Crazy 19" luff deal

As some of you may know, I live in Dubai and getting rims shipped here by dealers cost an arm n a leg.

I saw these online:

http://www.tiresdelivered.com/products.php?cat=633

I think they are a steal. I am planning on getting the black 19"s rims only with bolts and having them shipped to my sis in Fl. Then ill work out a way to get them here shipped cheap

what you guys think. 19"s or 20"?

Those are nice. I don't see 20's as an option though... I'd get the 20's if you drop your car & if the roads there are good....otherwise, go w/ 19's.

How much do these rims typically run? $199 seems like a steal!

the roads here are perfect. ive lived here for over 20 yrs and ive prob been over only 20 small bumps and potholes with all my cars.

i think they run for 1200 a set.

i saw the site in more detail and they are only offering +22 or +45 on the 8.5 offset

ill have to email them.

sounds like a good deal but it looks like a pain to clean.

I would do the 20's.
You will have to do the 8.5" all around since 10.5's won't fit on the rear.

I only see those in a +22 offset (for the 5x114.3). I dont think those others will work.

I did a checkout and did a shipping quote to Dallas TX from the vendor and it cost me $85. I could just imagine what it would cost to ship to UAE.

THey have the 19's and 20's in 8.5" wide with a +45 offset.

normally these wheels run $250-300each, so $200ea is a steal.

Would the 19x8.5" +45 work well on the sedan? This seems to be a higer offset than most people use/recommend for 8.5" width.

If these will work, this is a great deal and I'll order.

Nevermind, the +45 is 5x130 bolt pattern only.
