19 x 8.5 & 9.5 on a 5th Gen.

I found a set of wheels that I really like. The size is 19 x 8.5 in the front & 19 x 9.5 in the rear, with a offset of 35mm. I know some guys are running the 9.5 in the rear, but I'm on k sports, and I'm pretty much slammed. Anyone have any types of issues? what would be the best tires size?

This doesn't have exactly what you need, but I think you might be able to pull together some ideas from the different set-ups listed, esp. since people have listed tire sizes, spacers, drop, etc.

Thanks for the link. I totally skipped through that. But yea, Orgullo's got that same set up, and it works!

those are perfect sizing on a 4g so they will be near perfect on a 5th. it will probably work out well for you being slammed. roll your fenders and run towards the skinny side one the tires for minimal clearance issues.

No problems... You will be fine. I was running a 255/35 in the rear on the 19x9.5 40mm offset and 275/30 on the 20x9.5's 38mm offset. Had to role the fenders with the 20's. No issues at all with the 19's though so your good to go.
