This I agree with but the 615s don't belong in that list and most certainly arent in the same league as the XS.

The best bang for the buck wheel out right now is the Z1, has been for a while.

Go 205 up front and 215 in the rear for that aggressive stretched look

You need to provide offsets...

Usualy people run 245/35/18 up front and 275/35/18 in the rear; but thats with conservative offsets (+35-42 range)

I was thinking of going a bit staggered.... I dont know too much about offsets but i thing it was 42ish in the front and 45 at the rear... does that sound right for 19x9.5? 19x8.5 in the front.

Your offsets you just typed are backwards. +30 front and +37 rear 275/30/19 would look better in the rear to me, but would require a fender roll.

Ya sorry I meant to have the offsets the other way around... so what offset/tire size could I use in the front and back for these so I wouldn't have to do a fender roll?

We need diameter and width of wheel, as well as the tires you would like to run in order to tell you that.

It will fit fine. Tire size is up to you but most do between 225 and 255 on the front and between 255-275 on the rear. You can fit the 18x9.5 +38 concave wheel all around unless you want the flat faced wheel in front/stagger look.
