Correct Sizing for flush fitment
Hey guys, I'm looking at these rims: https://www.canadawheels.ca/replika-...ined-lip-w2619 but they only have 19x8.5 with an offset of 35 which I believe is a good size for the front but they don't have 9.5 for the rear, they only have between 19x9-10 but no .5. I have a 2019 c43 coupe, what would be my best bet or should I get 8.5 for the rear also, or would like 9 work best? Thanks all for the helpful advice always.

Most people are running 10mm and 12mm spacers on the stock wheels.
If you were to run a squared setup, you would lose a lot of grip in the rear during acceleration on turns or wet conditions, but it might help with some understeer.
The fronts will be pretty perfect in terms of flush but the rear would stick out about 5mm more than what people are typically running on stock wheels. (You would be sticking out 17mm over stock, 17 - 12 = 5mm over).

He said front would be 8.5 wide and rear 9.0 or 10.0, so how is that square?
Edit: Oh, PO did suggest possibility of 8.5 square setup.
My bad.
