offset PLZ

Real quick what tire and offset should i run on my 06' sedan?....
Im going with 19's and I want them to sit flush on the car. i dont want them to tuck and I dont want them to stick out..
What would look clean?.
I know there has been many posts on the same topic but I just need a clear answer, i dont get how the whole offset thing works........

I do plan on going with 19x8.5f/19x9.5r, do you think it would be easier just to go with 19x8.5 all around?.

Help PLZ.....

+38/+45 or close to those offsets.

You'll be able to rotate the tires and save on tire wear.

I think that thats all they have for the rear.........
Should I just get the 19x8.5/19x9.5 and keep the offset the same?..........how would that look?...
And thanks again for being helpful, seems like nobody else has the time to lend some advise.....

If you want staggered go 8.5/+38 front and 9.5/+45 rear. They will fit in the rear unless '06 is different than '03-'05. I don't think they are. Lots of people are running 9.5/+45 in the rear with no problems.

If you don't want staggered go 8.5/+38 all the way around.
