Exclamation Carlsson 2/5's

Anyone know if the 2/5's will fit a c32 without spacers?

I'm getting the 19x8 in the front and the 19x9 in the back...

C32
Those are 36lb wheels. They are heavy. Look good though.

Depends on the offset, but most likely they will. What offset did you get?
18x8 et35 ?
18x9 et30 or et35 ?

The 18"s are guaranteed to fit. I've had a set on my car before. But they look extremely small.

The 19"s should fit too, HOWEVER, 19" comes in 19x8 ET28 and 19x10 ET35. I am not too sure if a 19x10 wheel on the rear will cause any rubbing issue or not. I dont think anyone in here has 19x10 wheels on a C32.

I think carlsson has 19 x 9.5. Otherwise get 19 x 8 (front) and 19 x 9 (Rear)
you dont need spacer for Carlsson wheel.

It used to have 19x8 and 19x9, but not anymore. And I dont think they have 19x9.5.

Thanks! I'll let you all know if I have any problems on friday when I get them!
I'll post some pics too.

Also, I'm thinking about going with 235/35 19's in the front and 265/30 19 in the back. Nitto 555's. Is it best to get directional tires?
