How would these non staggered wheels fit on my coupe?

Hey guys, getting bored of my current wheels so i'm looking for a new set of wheels (going for blacked out look).

Found a used set of Varrstoen 3.2.2 for sale with the following specs:

Non staggered
19"
9.5" all around
+22 offset all around

Will these cause problems? If not, what kind of tires should i be looking for?

They won't cause probs but I'd stick with a staggered setup.
If ur looking for a flush look these will need wheel spacers for sure.
Even with wheel spacers the rears are going to be tucked though.

On a coupe, it would not look good. Go with stagger set up at least 9.5 up front & 10.5 in the rear. As for tires it all depends on how low are you or how low do you plan on going. By the way you should search and ask on this thread:

What size spacers would i need to make them look flush?

I am using spacers already, so i don't mind using them.

Have a few sets actually... 5mm, 15mm, 20mm

^ I'm suprised that 9.5" rear wheel doesn't look as tucked as I thought it would.

20mm spacer up front to make it flush.
The rear is a diff story, they don't make spacers large enough for that rear setup to really sit flush.
If u don't mind being tucked you could run 30mm spacer on the rear and then see what spacer up front best matchs it.
Not sure what size up front would be best in order for the front not to be more flush than the rear, that would look bad.
Just out of curiosity, why are u looking at this non-staggered setup?

I am looking at this set because it's pretty much brand new and it's kinda local. And i need a set of rims for my winter setup.

But according to that progression thread, the front doesn't look like it needs a 20mm spacer and neither does the rear o.O? Front looks like it needs a 10-15mm spacer and rear maybe a 5mm spacer.

I am currently on a set of Volk Racing SF-Winning, 8.5/9.5 the front offset is unknown because the tag fell but the rear offset is +19. The rear is pretty much flush at the moment with my current setup, so that 3mm difference retracted shouldn't be that bad. At most, i could just throw in a 5mm spacer.

Guys, if you have no idea what you're talking about please don't try and advise.

Running a square setup (all equal widths) is fine.

For tires I'd do 245/35 and 275/30 Unless you're trying to keep the tires square then do 255/35 all around. Then run spacers to your taste.

I was just responding to ur initial ques about what spacers would make the wheels flush.
If you want "pretty much flush" I guess that setup with spacers will work for you.
For some people on here my setup isn't flush enough because I'm not running aggressive enough.
I guess people have varying definitions of a flush setup.
