35 offset is fine, but you might want a 5-10mm spacer for the rear of you want to be aggressive. Why not just get wider rims in the back?

the rims that im getting for my bday only come in 19x8.5!!!

i wish i could get wider rims but my girl is buying them for my bday and she has a budget.

5-10mm in the rear should be fine without rubbing the fenders??

what about the front? any spacers?

no spacer in the front

rear 5mm - no problem

10mm - possibly need fender roll but looks better
