The coupe 19's fit quite well without spacers.

Ok, I've found some wheels I like for a relatively likable price! No I'm not telling you what they are.

They are 19x8.5 and 19x9.5, the dealers said they sit flush so I am unsure of the exact offsets.

What size tires should I run for this set up?

Here is my setup just for reference. I was going to an aggressive setup without super stretched tires. Its kinda in between, not fat tires and not skinny tires either.

Like others have said, roll your fenders very flat. Also consider your ride height and camber settings.


Wheel/tire specs:
Front

19 x 8.5 +15 (10mm spacer)
20.4 lbs
Toyo Proxes T1R 245/35/19

Rear
19 x 9.5 +20 (10mm spacer)
20.7 lbs
Nitto Invo 255/35/19

Camber set a -2.75 all around.











Front fitment:


Rear Fitment:

Just curious what vendor was that?

Marcus, I hate you so much. Every time I see your car I realize how many things I need to do to mine!

Are those offsets including the spacer? or are those the factory offsets?

i won't say what vendor, but pretty soon I will because they are pissing me off, my wheels are mega delayed


but lesson is, dont listen to what the vendor sais about what is flush, 9/10 they don't know what flush is

but take marcus' advice, his sedan is ON POINT

btw did a toe and rear camber. All my camber is in spec and no rubbing. Of course I could lower it more now.

Ok I have the offsets now.

+35 front and +40 rear

How close to flush is that? And if I run them like that(no spacers) am I going to need a camber kit? Could I just slap the wheels on and drive them with out it burning through tires?

I was trying to avoid buying a camber kit, but if I have to I guess I have to.
