Yeah if I had a square setup I'd stay within 1% of OEM rolling diameter for AWD and 3% for RWD.

Hmm I'm gonna have to let the others chime in on whether it would rub or not. I don't see why it would though. You could do the oem 19x8.5 wheels off the xS coupe and run the standard 225\45\19 tires that it comes with as a compromise.

any recommendations
Why not just put the same size tires on the staggered wheels? That's what I did on my x. 245/40 all around and with there only being .5 inch width difference between the front and rear wheels the diameter of tires won't change, at least not enough to make a difference. Just keep the wider wheels on the back for the staggered appearance. I don't know why more people don't do this. It's a lot less hassle than trying to find 4 of the same wheels.

On my 07 staggered OEM wheels I just ran 235/45/18 on all fours and it worked out fine, 10mm wider in front and 10mm narrower in the rear. Only reason I did it was they had a blowout on that particular size for BFG G-force tires and the deal was too good to pass up, but turned out pretty good.
Original Sin, the 45 series sidewalls are almost an inch taller and over 3% different, I wouldn't recommend it.

Anyone have the 19" anniversary edition wheels on their sedan? I came across a set and am intrigued. They sort of remind me of GTR wheels in a way and are made by Rays.

I saw a set in person and they look very nice with just the stock color, probably even better powdercoated a custom color. I almost got a set of the 18s, but then I got the deal on my coupe wheels.

I found brand new ones for 182 each at a dealer and I can get 4 19x9 at that price. I'm thinking of going ahead and giving them a try. I did cancel the order on my other two 19x9 11-13 coupe wheels so I'd be stuck with 2 19x9 wheels to sell if I did go this route. I can't decide what would look better, decisions decisions.

For anyone who is interested, I am selling two rear wheels with tires for $250+shipping/ppfees each or $400+shipping/fees for the set. Picked up in DC for $400.
They were plasti-dipped by the previous owner. Tires could be used for another season or two.
Firm on pricing. PM me
