Newbie at rims.. help please?

Okay, I've already looked at the sticky about rim/wheel/tire fitment, so before any flaming start flying in, I ALREADY CHECKED! THIS IS JUST A CLARIFICATION!..

I saw some 19" rims that will fit on a TL 5x114.3JJ lug pattern.. BUT they specified that the offset is 35 and the wheel width is 8".. so here's my question now..

I saw on the sticky that you need a +48 offset so that they will fit.. So is there no way the rim will ever fit unless I do some fabrication(is that even possible in this situation?)?

I also saw something about spacers.. will those help? And where can I find them and how much are they?..

The only reason I really want these rims are because I'm on a budget and they fall right in my budget..

So thanks a lot in advance.. any help will be greatly appreciated

u will definitely need some fender rolling and cut tabs if you lower your car or are already lowered...as far as spacers go...that would be a no no becuz spacers make the wheel stick out more...u might not even be able to lower ur car becuz they are going to be sticking out with that low of offset..they will fit as far as lug pattern but the offset is too low...Good Luck and keep searching around...try the Black Market...

you'll be fine after some fender rolling.

i'm running 18x8.5 +34 so with 19x8 +35.. you'll be fine with just fender rolling.

and what wheels??
