Cool >> Rim question

I have the 06 coupe, with OEM 19".
I am planning getting a new set of rims and tires. The concern I have is I have the Akebono big brake kit all around, so the fitting a new set is a bit tricky.

The OEM 19" clears all four coners with no problem, no spacer needed.
10, 15 mm spacer is needed to use OEM M35 19".
5mm spacer is needed to use OEM M35 19" without the brake kit.

Any suggestion on width and offset? ( without spacer and fender rolling)

One set I am looking at right now is 19" XXR 530.
19x8.75 +15 front, 19x10.75 +15 rear.
Will this set fit?
If so, what tire size I should get?

Thanks for all the help !!

Car is not lowered.
But might consider lower springs in near future.

With almost a 11" wide rear rim and +15 offset running a decent size tire will require fender rolling and or pull. Tire size s/b at least 285/35 for the rim size...Gary

What if I go for 19x8 and 19x9?

What offset am I looking at? again, the brake kit is the biggest concern.

first,

and in answer to your question, what you need to worry about is the disc, not the offset. order your wheels with the highest disc offered, and you'll be able to clear the brakes.
