technical question (Vossen CV3)

Hey guys,

Im searching for 2nd hand Vossen rims and been offered the above mentioned model in the following offset:
fronts 19×8.5 et 35
Rears 19×10 et 55
Bolts pattern 5×112

Can anyone tell me if this setup will be suitable for my car?
Is it a deep concave setup?

Thank you for your help, im a complete clueless about it.

Front will work, but the rear will be super weak. If you do it, find a pair of 15-20mm spacers to make it flush on the rear.

GL!

Thanks for the reply, so from what I understand the rear are more "flat" face rather than a deep concave, is that correct?
What offset should I look for if I want the deep concave look on the rears?
Thank you!

The other way around. Rears are usually more concave. Mid 30s is a good offset.

Sounds like a W204 to me.

Yeah, Geordie is right...

The fronts would be ok, but the rears are a 204 fitment. Avoid.
