The problem might be the wheel clearance on the inside of the wheel well (e.g. front strut). Plus you might need to run a 215/40 tire if your car is low.

I think it would look similar to Loonie's previous setup, except your front wheel would be sunken in by 0.47 inches and the tire would be stretched a bit more.

In the picture I was running 9 +30. I rebuilt it back to 9 +45 because there was more poke in the front than the back which I didn't like. With 9.5" +48 you would get 9mm less clearance on the inside according to the offset calculator and 3mm poke on outside. I did rub when I had the offset +30 on tight u-turns and rarely on big dips.

9 is max. 9.5 is too wide, 225 is the lowest u can go in 19s w the proper weight handling, 215 wont do it. and u are on coils, not gonna work bro. Why dont u post up what wheels u kinda like maybe we can give u some leads. seems everything u r looking at is wront bolts pattern, offset, or size. U looking for a deal on used or for new? whats the budget I may have a line for you

My budget is about 1200 , think is I'm looking for specific style that just never matches up . Five spoke wheel with a step lip 18 inch . Sounds simple but there are only few in that size , usually 16 and less but that's ridiculous lol .
