+38 offset too weak?

Looking at some 19x8, 19x9 Work VS-KF wheels for my 04 coupe. They have a +38 offset and was wondering if those offsets would look good on my coupe which is a daily driver. Thanks

Widths and offsets are way too weak for a Coupe (and a Sedan too)

Well the factory offsets on the Rays are pretty similar on the coupe and they are hiding in the wheel wells. With some spacers u would sit flush.. 20mm front and 25 mm back.. but thats another 200 or so to spend. I would say get the right offsets the first time. Its all a learning curve.. most of us spend 2X what we should b/c we learn as we go and unfortunately that means spending $ we could have saved. Just my 2cents.
