Question about wheels/tires on an X

Alright I know this has been spoken about but I guess my question is a bit more specific.

I am really noobish when it comes to tire sizes and such.

Heres my situation - I had a 04 coupe prior to my X that I picked up yesterday. On the coupe for the summers I had a set of 19" Privat Profil's mounted on Toyo Proxes T1-S's

I believe the fronts are 19x8.5 and rears 19x9.5 (but thats a guess) maybe its 19x8 and 19x9 (i dunno?)

Now what I was thinking of doing was trying to sell my rears and just grabbing another set of fronts (since you shouldnt stagger on the X) - my question is this: do my current fronts even fit correctly??

The Toyos are 245/35 ZR19
how would those wheels fit on the X? How do I know what the offset is? I remember reading a 40 or 42mm offset would fit nicely...

If these arent going to fit then I am going to just sell the whole set - and thats the reason I am asking now (one day after getting my X) - because I figured this would be a good time to sell some rims since the weather is getting nicer

Anyway - any help you guys could give would be great
Mods - - if this is not in the right place...be gentle

thanks everyone!

Without knowing your offsets it's pretty difficult, but I would imagine they are 30 or less which is not the best for the sedan.
If you have to buy 2 new wheels and tires, why not sell your set and buy a set with the correct offsets.

well yea thats basically what i was thinking - just buy two and sell two or sell the whole set etc. - the only way i'd only sell two and buy two is if they fit right

how do i figure out the offset?

but - if ur right and the offsets are off and they arent going to fit right (which im sure ur right!) - im definitely gonna list these bad boys for sale ASAP

thanks!!!

Here is a good site that shows you how to measure offset: https://www.rsracing.com/tech-wheel.html#backspace
