Thanks
Run 19x9.5 +35, it will be a much easier fit. If you're set on the +25 it will poke outside the fender about 12mm so you'll need camber and stretched tires to tuck.
I run 18x9.5 +38 and my outside wheel edge is just a bit outside the fender.

I have seen a user here pull off a +25 at it doesn't look too bad. The only other option would be a +38 and I'm afraid if it comes out to be a fitment I hate after spending that much on wheels

Coupe will be fine, Sedan will be poking about 10-12mm outside the fender edge.

Hey everyone,
I have a question about a set of vossens i found locally and I'm not entirely sure if they'll fit or not. They're staggered 19x8.5/10 and are 32,38 offset. I have a Journey coupe, so I'm not worried about BBK fitment. I plan to drop on Eibach springs at some point too.
I'm just trying to get close to flush, but i don't want any poke. As long as these won't poke i will probably pick them up.

My clueless self is also not entirely sure what to do for tire sizes either. I think 245/40/19 and 275/40/19 should fit, but i wanted to get your opinion on what may fit better, or give a better ride.
Sorry if both of those are noob questions, but I am most certainly a noob when it comes to this. Thanks in advance for any help or information you can give me!

I'd run a 255/40 front 285/35 rear with those offsets, you can run the narrower sizes but be sure the back is a series smaller to keep diameter similar, so a 40 front 35 rear series.

Thanks for the reply!
I appreciate the advice.
Do you think the wheels will fit alright and look decent?

Those are good offsets for a fairly flush fit, which is much easier to deal with then one that's too aggressive. Best part about that setup is it allows you to run more tire.

255/40/19 would be the safe fit, 265/40 or 265/35 if you want to get them tight to the fender but may rub in front under compression. If you really want to push it you could flat roll the front fender edge to gain a few mm, then the 265s would easily fit, and with a little camber the 275/35s could enter the discussion

Zahy is running 19x9.5 +40 w/255/40s square on his G and can't argue how good it fits
