Planning on getting new wheels

Hi im new to this forum. I have a 05' sedan 6spd and im planning to purchase some Work varianza T1S: F 19x8.0 +38(55)mm A disc. R 19x9.5 +38(76)mm O disc. I was wondering if these wheels are too off for my car or can I make it fit flush with my fender? i'll probably get Falken 255/40 in rear and 245/40 in front. Any help would be nice.

Is the car lowered? If not, do you plan on lowering it? If yes, how low are you? I'd go with a 275/35 in the rear especially if you're only going with a +38 offset. If you go 245F/255R you'll have a semi stretched tire in the rear and a normal tire up front, it will not look good.

275/35 is not skinny at all. The sidewall is almost the same height as the 255/40.

I'd go 19x8.5 +30 up front with a 245/40 and 19x9.5 +38R with a 275/35.

Yea I really wish i could see someone with the same wheels on the same car so i can get an idea. All i have for an idea, is people who have the Coupe (CPV35) with those wheels.

there are some sedans rocking these too.. but either weak offsets or SUPER aggressive offsets..

i'd go with grant's suggestions for a functional flush look

I can't find him, but donpisto has these on his car as well. They aren't your average fitment though lol

Edit; I was typing lol, yes I know levon, but his offsets are in the negatives so it's not the same effect. Unless you plan to run that kind of set up.
