New wheels and tires....finally

I finally got my car back from the body shop and had the wheels and tires replaced. I purchased a set of Speedy Envy 19x8.5" rims (38mm offset) and a set of General Exclaim UHP 245/35/19 tires. Let me know what you all think.....

The two G35 wheels on the passenger side were practically destroyed when I spun the car after trying to avoid some road debris.

I will definitely need spacers at the rear. I think 15mm since I can't find any 10mm spacers anywhere.

Those look identical to the HP Racing wheels. I love the colour and fat lip on them.

Did you weight them before you mounted the tires?

No, I wish I had. I guess I can contact the shop that sold me the wheels and tires.

What mesurments are those, 245/40/19l? Seems like you got plenty of rubber with those 19"s, how's the ride quality compare to the 18"s you had???

The tires are General Exclaim UHPs measuring 245/35/19. The ride is rougher, so much more that I had to adjust my Illuminas from a setting of 3 to 2 at the front. I will probably also have to adjust the rears from a 4 to a 3.
