Anyone running Avant garde M368/M580's?

So I finally found a wheel I like on these cars. The avant garde M368's. I found this picture on google. Name:  g37-m368-dolphin-grey-3_zpsc11l4xtj.jpg

But I will running the 19" wheels instead of 20's. Will it give me the same look as the picture? Anyone running the 19" version of these wheels?

If not those I am thinking about getting these. The Avant Garde m580's. Name:  DSC_9429_zpsemi0hx8x.jpg

I love the 368's. I wanted those but they didn't come in Silver so I didnt get them. They also didn't have the width I wanted either. My vote...368's

Except the fact that they are almost $900 per wheel. If I am going to spend that much money I'd prefer boost.

So those wheels have are 10.5 R +20 offset. Wouldn't that rub like crazy in the rear? Guessing the rear fenders would have to be rolled?

The M368's are great looking wheels but man are they heavy. I thought they were around 27 pounds in the 19x9.5" size but apparently, according to a vendor, they're actually 30 pounds per wheel. Too much IMO. Plus, like half of the other budget wheel sellers, they're using low-cost matte powder coating which just looks cheap IMO.

The stock wheels are 27.5 lbs. So it's not too off.

Maybe it might rub a little. I am running 10.5 +22 and its killing my rear fender lining. Other than that I am cool as a pool. +20 might rub more

Trim the fender, get a roll, and use the right tire you'll be fine.
I'd look into a rear camber kit either way so you can dial it in for your desired degree

^^ pretty much, totally doable with just some camber and the right tire. If you're not a fan of camber than you might need a pull if you're lowered, the rear fenders are already rolled.

like everyone said, with the right right and camber it can be done. Im running a 10.5+22 in the rear with a 285/30 tire. Camber i believe is sitting around -2.5 or -3.

I had to roll or bed the bumper tabs. other than that, no issues.

I am planning to be at 19x9.5 in the rear with a +25 offset. I don't want to trim or roll fenders. And I don't plan to run more than -2 to -2.5 degrees of camber. Should be okay. Plan to do 19x8.5 +20 up front as well. What do you guys think? This is for the AG M580 (the bottom picture)
