I've got a set of the 359's, and I run them 19x10 square. Pic is pre-5mm spacers in the rear.

What tyre size are you running on the front? And are they OEM M359 offset or an aftermarket one?

265/30/19's all around, with a +25 offset.

They're an avant garde M359 from Klutch Republik.

Only over really huge bumps. You'd be surprised. Hell, I was surprised.

Do you happen to have more photos of the wheel/tire so I can better see the sidewall and any "stretch."?

Sure do. These pics are before I added 5mm spacers to the rear.

Thanks, you are running a wider wheel than I will, but the tire size will be the same so the "stretch" in the rear will be even less. That seals the deal, I am going to place an order tomorrow!

Cheers man, my new rears will sit 10mm further out than that photo so it should just about work. Your front inner wheel must be really close to the strut!

Close, but there's still some room. I added a 5mm spacer to the rear, and had to do a modest little pull. Lots of space for pulling on these things, i've found.
