Default Need an Answer ASAP

I am getting ready to order these wheels. they are 19x9.5 all the way around. I am putting them on my 02 gs3. Will i have issues with the 9.5? As far as rubbing and what not. I know i can't fit the 20x10 up front. Will the 19x9.5 be good?

Why would you order anything if your not well informed whether it will fit or not

i was about to buy the 20's but i wanted the 20x10 all around. Because i dont like the small lip on the 8.5s. So the 19's have the big lip all around

I would advice doing some searches on widths and offsets.. I'm not that knowledgable in this area but 20x10 in the front will not work unless you roll the fenders and are going for VIP... 20x10 in the rear is fine.. you want 20x8.5 or 9 for the front..

Isnt the point of posting threads and asking questions is to find out " the easy way". By picking people brains and seeing what they already know?

+35 n 9.5 is really conservative.. easily fit with no rubbing what so ever.. itll just look like a regular car with regular plus size rims..

should work, fronts may just barely barely rub depends how low ur car is, if uve removed the front fender edge cover. fronts seem to have a couple spots of thick fender tabs which it may rub if ur car is too low.
