Wondering if anyone could help me figure out if these will fit:

For Sale 19" Mercury Silver Volk SF-Challenge Wheels 19x8.5 +22 19x9.5 +23; 5 x 114.3

Found this on craigslist off a 350z and was wondering if it will work.

Thanks guys!

Those are basically my specs +/- a few mm of offset, don't listen to these noobs. They will look awesome if you have the right suspension setup and tires.

Also, both are fully functional and driven hard regularly. With the wheels you posted you would have 2mm less offset than me in the front and 4mm less in the rear so you would be slightly more flush than me if you were as low. I don't recall hectors exact setup but it's close except he running a 275/35-19 in the rear and I am running a 255/35-19. We are both Rolled, I am on Stance coilovers with Swift springs, 9k front 6k rear, and he is on a custom built SARX coilover with 10k front and 7k rear Tein springs on Bilsteins.

Thanks for the replys guys!

Just wondering why they would look eh or not that good?! Those pictures look pretty awesome to me, but what does it take to get them like that? Is there any camber, spacers, fender modifications, or specific suspension set up?

9krpmrx8: whats the specs on your sf's and the bb sfs?

http://honolulu.craigslist.org/oah/pts/4055299531.html

THis is the link. Not sure whats a reasonable price to pay either lol.

That's a great deal. My setup is 19 x 8.5 +24 front with a 245/35-19 tire and 19 x 9.5 +27 rear with a 255/35-19, and my wheels are Volk GTS in Mercury silver. My offsets are with a 10mm Project Kics spacers front and rear.

I don't know Hectors exact specs but they are very close to mine in offset and same sizes but he is not running spacers, his spec are similar to what the ones you are looking at are. His wheels are Volk SF Challenges.

Are you in HI? I grew up in Kahaluu

I run 18x9.5 +23 w/265 35 18 all around, and drive as hard as I please. Tires only rub a little bit over big bumps.

Just not my style all I meant, it won't look bad, just not great haha.

Yeah my buddy is pretty low and running a 18 x 10 +25 with 265/35-18's and doesn't any issues when driving hard. Unless of course is really jacked, then of course there is the occasional rub. But 19's are where it's at
