Anyone running 19x9.5 +45 all around?

Anyone running a 19x9.5 +45 setup all around? The reason I ask is because of these...

http://www.velocitymotoring.com/vmr/...oke-concavity/



Does anyone happen to have info on hand of the Factory 19's width and offset as well as OEM recommended tire size for those 19's? I've searched but haven't really come up with anything.

I'd like to stay with a 255 tire, but that's prolly a bit much for front and rear, definitely don't want to go below a 245 though. 35 or 40 series sidewall? The car won't be lowered too much (1 inch).

Here's a photoshop for an idea of what I'm getting at. Except the car in question is Grigio Metallic and has the full OEM lip kit

Velocity has some awesome wheels - I think if you went with that size they would be similar to 8.5 wide +32 (and i'm almost sure that others have done that offset).

As for tire size - recommended for stock wheels - which are probably 8 wide +45 will be 245/40-19. I'm not sure what tire size would work for you based on the width - and figuring out the stretch.

The VMR wheels are very reasonably priced. But since they're designed for European autos, they'll need hub rings for Honda/Acura applications.

just fyi.. there are about 3 guys in my work complex that has these wheels.. 2 of them did it right.. one of them did it wrong..

you need to have your car lowered and run stretched tires to make these look good.. otherwise it will look like complete shit.

and when i mean stretch i mean 35 series in front and 30 series in the back... these rims do not look good with thick tires.
