Can anyone help me out. I'm looking at some Work Varianza TS1's in these sizes. Are those offsets gonna work? and what kind of spacer would I have to run to be close enough to flush.
Front: 19x8.5 +40
Rear: 19x9 +38

Those offsets will work but why don't you go more aggressive so you don't have to run spacers? Do like a 19x9 +30 and 19x10.5 +35 if you don't want to go too aggressive. Or even 19x8.5 +22 19x9.5 +22

I'd love to go more aggressive and I would def. run spacers. I just don't know when I'll have another opportunity to purchase the wheels I want at this price. How would 5mm spacers ride on 19's? I have 15F & 20R right now on my stockies and it gets somewhat wobbly above 80. I'd much rather get offsets so I don't have to roll on spacers so I might just have to pass.

there shouldn't be any vibrations from your spacers.. unless it requires hubcentric rings and you don't have them.

forgive me for the absurdly stupid question, but what do you do with your old wheels? sell them on craigslist? will the new wheel installer maybe give some sort of credit? sell them for scrap metal?

I kept mine just incase I ever get rid of my car. You can sell them on the forums or craigslist.

Lol @ scrap metal.
