They look nice. 8.5 is a little wide. Your gonna need AT LEAST a +45 offset...+50 might even be better.

You sure they're not 8.5" wide? I don't see 19x7.5...

I see 18x7.5 and 19.8.5

19x8.5 with a +45 is a no-no. Rubby rubby.

19x7.5 +45, you should be fine.


you might have a slight rub in the back with passengers/cargo going over a bump or angling in a driveway.
