Dont' see why not.

For the fronts, I think i've been seeing 19 & 20x9 +35 across the boards.
These should stick out about 2mm more but there's nothing tires can't handle.

these are around 12.25mm less in width compared to a 9inch width rim so i'd go with 235/40/19 or if you want to tire tuck, 225.

Rears, no problem.

Cross that, if you don't want fat sidewalls and tires, i'd go with 225 or 235/35/19 in the front, 255/30/19 in the rear

These will be VERY aggressive on the car.

The fronts will sit a few mm further in than mine and 1013's girlfriend had on the HRE's. When on stock suspension, if I look from the side of the car my wheels are outside of the car, a drop will cure (most of) this though.

The rears are about the same as mine and will extend outside of the car if you are on stock suspension.

So a few mm less aggressive than these at the front and a few mm less in the rear. Not your everyday setup for sure!

Rear fitment should be like these are (10.5 ET45 = 1mm less).

Thinking I may need to pass on this setup based on what everyone is telling me. This is my commuter car.

If you look at the car, he went 285/25/20 in the rear to my knowledge. The OP is trying to get 19s and i recommended 255 tires on a 9.5 width. i think it will have enough room, no rubbing just with the natural camber of the car if it's lowered. i'm planning on 9s and 10s in the rear with stretched tires, slammed =]

The actual rim is outside the fender on stock suspension, I also said that a drop will make it look better. But you really need to drop it to make it look fine, and even then it is an very aggressive offset for a "regular" person. One that likes stance and won't mind the occasional rubbing the fender could run it without too much issues. It's not the rubbing I was referring to, but the overall look.

I have about the same offsets on my wheels but I would never use them without a drop!

understand the "regular" person drop. the rims i had on my past car stuck out pass the fender more than inch. when i dropped it, the natural camber came in and actually tucked it in, giving it about 3mm clearance for the tires so there were no rubbing.

You'll find way more cars on stock suspension than people on aftermarket springs/coils so I don't know what you're getting at.

I am just pointing out that the fitment doesn't look good on stock suspension and the OP seemed to back out of it then. Most people will probably think that a wheel that needs an aggressive drop to look fine (just to stay inside the fender when driving) is a bit too much.

I'm out of this thread now!

How far do you have to commute everyday?

Don't get scared..I love the fact I dropped my car on the wheels I picked. I still commute a lot all over LA, over horrible roads, and I still find it to be much more fun than having it stock.
