don't know what kind of wheels you found, but 19-20lbs is pretty damn light for a 19. thats also pretty cheap. my 19's on my old audi were DTMs (basically made by iForged) and were 21lbs, forged and retailed for $660 per wheel (i didn't pay that of course, but still), which was a good deal considering HRE's, kinesis and others are double that per wheel.

just for reference:

19x10 BBS CH's - 28lbs
19x8 OZ Superleggeras - 21lbs
19x9 Ro-Ja formula 5 - 24lbs

Make sure the offset is right. I didn't spend much time but I noticed the 19X5 X114's offset was 45mm. thats alot !

i think you'll need 5mm spacers for the front especially if you have the brembo's
the rears should fit fine with +35.

those are lightweight for 19" and very economically priced.
