I'm thinking about buying a set of 19'' Works SC1 for my 09 tungsten pearl AWD. I've spent countless hours (actually weeks) researching here and other sites and got mixed stories about staggered so I'd rather caution on the safe side and do 8.5'' all around. My two main concerns are:
1.Will it look odd on the car without any lowering (can't find any pics of these wheels on stock suspension)?
2. There's so much variation on tire sizes and offsets that I'm completely lost. What would work the best for me?

My requirements are to keep a clean, classy look, no modification to fenders and no rubbing issues.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks for helping a newb in advance.

well im AWD too and im stagger i just like the way it looks alot better and with the rite tires your good as gold. but if you want flush you should go like +30 for your offset and as for tires that all depends if you wanna stretch or not GL on the setup

Thanks laobo, I've seen a couple of +30 setups on members cars here and it seems to work. But what I'm concerned about is if the wheel well gap will look ugly without doing any suspension work on a 19" rim. I know the gap doesn't change from stock rims to after market as long as tire OD isn't changed, but the overall look does. Anyone out there on 19 and stock suspension?

almoost non-existent... if you don't downsize tire specs.. you might not have any gaps... but it would look weird still... why no drop??

I was contemplating coil overs, but I don't know if its truly worth the money for me right now. Plus I don't want to compromise too much ride quality and New England roads are terrible in the winter.

well im from the new england area also and to tell you the truth my 19's with coilover ride alot better than my stock 17's on stock suspension. As far as winter goes with the coilover you can go rite back to stock height without a worry and still ride smooth. Without a drop especialy on the AWD it will look so high with the 19's off the ground.

Jumbo09

Yeah, I might have to do more searching and give some serious consideration to coil overs. I just wish I saw some pics of this rim or something similar in size on stock suspension to get a better idea. I guess there may be a reason why there isn't many pics, it probably looks weird.

Jumbo09

Thank you. I really appreciate the pics. The bottom pic does not look bad.

That would be really great. Please post pics when they're on. I love that wheel and I think it would look amazing on tungsten. Congrats!
