Tire set up for 19X8.5

I'm still a noob when it comes to understanding tire sizes even after reading several articles on it. I was wondering what a good front tire on 19x8.5 with +42 offset would be for a sedan. Car is lowered about 1 1/2. Previously had 225/40/19 but those are harder to come by.

Vertini Hennessey 20x10 +25 all round dropped on Tein S-Techs, am i going to be flush with guards with/without spacers? I'm not worried if my rims will sit inside the guards a tiny bit just not too much like my stock 18's do. Thanks

If you don't mind me asking, but why did you go with a square setup on the coupe??

Rim fitment is VERY confusing for me to understand. What do you recommend that would look the best?

well most people who have coupes if they go aftermarket they go staggered and the most common would be the 9.5/10.5 setup...with those widths the 20mm offset would be just fine to run but if you wanna be flush with the "guards" (most people call em fenders) get something in the teens offsets and you will still be able to run 245/35 275/35 tires....if you go with a setup like that the only modifcation you will need is to roll your rear fenders (guards) and most would use a rear camber kit since your thinkin of going with the s-techs

Thanks a lot for your help i appreciate it man. I can only get these Hennessey's with 20x8.5 +20 or +25 there is no smaller offset. So you're saying if i went for 20x8.5 + 20 and 20x10 + 25 it would look good on Tein S-Techs but i may have a bit of rubbing at the back? i can get my fenders rolled that's ok i have a mate that can do it properly. Ah, is there a way i can not use a camber kit as i have no idea what it is/does and it's my daily drive i just want to drop it a bit and put a nice set of rims on it. Thank you

I'd look for other wheels in that price range if those are your only options.
