OEM 19s Rays Forged

I'm considering getting the 19x8, 33 offset, with a 245/40 tire. I remember reading that these look a bit sunken in on our sedans, especially when lowered(impul springs). What size spacers should I use to give me that 'flush with the fender' look? Also, I believe they weigh around 20 lbs? thanks in advance.

Why not go with 4 rears and that would be flush at all 4 corners?

If you go with the 19x8 +33 fronts, I would run 10 mm spacers. That would look pretty flush even w/ lowering. This set up would be pushed out exactly 1 mm more than my 19x8.5 +30 set up with 245-40-19s:

Sorry to veer off topic but a quick question. AlterZgo, have you lowered your car at all in the picture??

Yes - car is lowered w/ Eibach Pro-kit springs.

aooooo - Agree with you 100%. Staggered widths on AWD will cause no problems at all as long as the front and rear tires are the same height.

I made a mistake in my initial post..the 19x8 fronts are 30 offset, 19x8.5 rears are 33 offset. I'm going with the rears all the way around. To flush out the look with the fender, do I still go with 10mm spacers? who makes good hubcentric spacers?

I would roll with the 19x8.5 +33 as is with no spacers to see what you think. The front is going to be fine. For hubcentric spacers.... Try Kics, Eibach, or Ichiba. If you are running Nissan or Infiniti wheels there is no need for hubcentric rings if you are not running spacers; they will already have the 66.1mm bore.

Thanks. Are there any aftermarket wheels(not custom like HRE, etc.) that are hubcentric to our vehicle with a 66.1mm bore?

um...hell no @ the price. but it sounds typical for a "dealership" to charge that much. you can get some super sic aftermarket wheels for that kind of cash.
id suggest you look @ the private classifieds here

Most aftermarket wheels that fit our cars have a 73.1mm center bore (and would require hubcentric rings).
