need help on Rims!!
i was thinking about getting these wheels soon, maybe in 19s, about 10.5 in the back and maybe 10 or 9.5 in the front.
my question is what would be the biggest size i can do with a stock suspension setup with these rims? that and if i do get them and eventually lower my car, would i have to do anything to make them fit or what? or should it work fine without doing anything.
please let me know and if so does anyone or can anyone get some good deals on some Gram lights?!? thx

My Volk SF-Challenge's are 19x9.5 fronts (28mm offset) w/ 245/35/19; 19x10.5 rears (23mm offset) w/ 275/35/19. Bridgestone SO-3's all around.
I had my car stock height for a couple of days before I put my springs and struts in, it looked horrible before the drop. The gaps made the rims look like they were not flushed with the body... especially with the drop.
Once I installed my suspension and the springs settled, it looks awesome.
I would suggest getting 255 on the fronts tho because the 245 don't give it enough lip protection. The rears can be 285 as well. I think that's what I'm gonna get next.

I'm running 9.5 and 10.5 w/ 245 and 275 tires, and I lowered my car 1 inch all around and I didn't have to do anything. I know someone who can get you a pretty good deal on rims, PM me if you want to know. Also, I would reconsider picking Volks over Gram lights cause Volks are made better and doesn't cost that much more then Gram lights, but that's just my opinion
