^Well I have 18X9.5 +45 on my car with some 275's all around and it's pretty flush for me. Any more of an aggressive offset and it would stick out a little too much. +42 in the front should be fine though. But since they are 19's you might run on the fender liner when your turn your wheels all the way to one side.

Well I want to have all 4 rims be the same size, 19x9.5, seeing as i know staggered can effect understeer/oversteer slightly.
I'm just not sure on where to go for the offsets. a few places have their's at 19x9.5 +48 for the 9.5" rim.
but from what i've seen, thats going to sit in a little, if the +45 offsets arnt even flush.
what about 19x9.5 +42 on all 4 corners? would that be too much
edit: this is with 19x9.5 +36 in the rear....??

yeah, so if i use the offsets in the link i posted 19x9.5 +36 will they be close to flush? they look pretty close in the picture.
but would i have issues up front with that size and offset?
( im on stock suspension still yet aswell, but plan to pick up some variant 3's when i can afford them )

Flush is even with the outer lip of the fender not the inner, right? How would having 19s matter as long as the outer diameter of the tire is the same? It's not like the tire actually grows when you run 19s. The way I see it, a 9.5 +45 is the same for 18s and 19s. The tire size can be a deciding factor when you are getting more aggressive offsets. Do I just not understand something? I'm trying to understand this stuff better myself.
