what offset w/ 19x8.5
i was wondering what offset i would need to run to not have any issues w/ rubbing w/ H&R springs on my C43. i might be able to get 19*8.5 amg wheels, the 5 spokes from the cls class

im guessing they are all front wheels from that car. not staggered.

+25 is too low. They will stick out a little.

you should be using +35 front and rear to be safe.

I have 19x 8.5 and 19x9.5 235 in front and 265 in rear. ET 35 all around and they rub. I would run a 225 up front and a 255 in rear.
