I assume they are fine on an auto?

What offset should I look for in a 19 inch wheel?

They are fine for an automatic. In fact just about anything fits an automatic. The offset question is fully covered on the website so I won't totally re-hash. There is a WIDE RANGE, that MIGHT fit, but as we all know now, offset really only helps you determine if the tires are going to be rubbing on the inside and outside of your wheel wells and not if the wheel will hit the brake calipers.

This is because it is the shape of the BACK of the spokes clearing the caliper that makes or breaks if a particular applications fits the car. Unfortunately that measurement is not easliy obtained and varies wildly within the same offset on the same brand of wheel manufacture.

If you want to keep the offset as close to stock as possible, (for less suspension torque) the 35 -38 is a good bet for the least amount of problems in the future, but other offsets beyond that will fit . Of course beefing up the suspension and changing the camber if you go beyond the middle range of the offset possibilities (especially if you are lowering your car) lets you get away with a lot more options that will be problem free from a stress on the stock suspension viewpoint.

My ONLY REAL SUGESTION is to get a good wheel dealer and if you order in something that doesn't fit, they will send it back without incuring any shipping or purchasing costs on your part.

What exactly did they do? Remove the orange and just add a "smoke" effect?
