Wheel fitment question
Overall dimensions are similar, considering the factory wheels are 16 x 8, 50 offset. Since the 19's have a 45 offset; the wheels will sit 5mm closer to the fenders, 5mm away from the strut. You will definitely need some spacers to get rid of the sunken in look.

Preciate it 3ROTOR. To make sure I understand, would the wheels sit 5mm closer to the fenders, or 5mm away from the fenders which would cause the sunken in look like the factory wheels do?

Also, those tires are a bit plump for that size wheel, which, as anyone who sees this will tell you, are too small. 9" or 9.5" wheels will fit those tires the best.

Thanks Bartledoo. Understand much better now, but still have a question. What will the spacers do for me? Do I have to have them for the wheels and tires to fit? Asking because I can these from a friend real right.
You won't need spacers. The wheels would just get more flush with spacers. That tire size has been done on that wheel size, but I don't think it is recommended.
