i ran 19x8.5+15 with 215/35 with no rub and i was dumped on coils. The 2IS is very picky up front. believe it or not when going 19's if you want to go aggressive up front you really only wanna go to a 9" wide wheel because you can run a 215/35. i drove this low and could crank a full u turn.

my setup was 19x8.5+15 which is roughly = 19x9.5"+27. i easily have room to fit that 5mm spacer to get the offsets equal. see picture above. ideally on the 2IS an aggressive front with coils should be about 19x9+16 with a 215/35.

Those offsets and widths are actually pretty common now. People are actually running more aggressive..
