I prefer flush with a little poke on mine.

Atleast Kalvin and I are on the same page

The thing is your's is a model thats one generation behind mine...so either model the will work with a +29 offset for flushness?

The 2nd Gen sedans actually have an advantage that you guys can fit a more aggressive offset than us because all your fenders are rolled from the factory. The +29 WILL work and WILL be flush with a 235/35/19 tire dropped on Eibach's.

+29 will be concaved like my wheels here :



the +38 would be pretty flat faced. That's another advantage of going with the more aggressive offset, especially if you like the concave look

And if you look at my post count, and how long i've been on the site, and the fact that i've had 3 different sets of aftermarket wheels in the past year... i would never steer you in the wrong direction

SICK!! Looks good man!

Now the question is tire size with the 19x9 +29 offset. Also should I go staggered or keep it similar on all fourz...so many freken options!!! ahhhhhh
Options are good

What about TPMS?? When do I get these put on? I could probably just take them off directly from my G37 wheels.

This man knows what he's talking about when it comes to wheels.

There's many things to consider when choosing staggered and same size on all 4.

If you want to prolong tire life and be able to rotate your tires, then you'd want to run the same size all around.

If you want an even more concave look in the rear then you'd want to run staggered. But know that you'd have to run the +35 offset and a 255/35/19 tire in the rear, which is pretty stretched. You'd also have to run atleast -1.5 degrees of camber which will decrease your tire life as it will wear the inside of the tires faster. But like i say, if you want the look, you have to pay!

For the 19x9 +29, i'd suggest a 235/35/19.

The TPMS get put on the wheels before the tires are mounted. If they dont fit directly to the new wheels (different mounting angles of the valve stem) there is a company that sells adapters so you can retain your tpms.

Mr. Wheel man Fo show!

Check this link out...exactly what im looking for...well...kinda...the wheel itself along with the offset im looking for now...bwsides that Im looking at 19s with a the "bright chrome" finish. The guy on the RSX forum mentions that anything higher than +29 just doesn't look the same.

That's because he is correct, any higher an offset and the face of the wheel is flat. The +29 is perfectly concave.

Tire Rotation

I like how you mentioned the rotation part, thats one the disadvantages when running staggered.

So 19x9 +29 with 235/35/19 tires all around should be okay? This means it would look concaved all around right?

It would look perfect and yes, it would be concave all around since every wheel is the same.
