Any wheel techies here?

Im thinking

19" x 8.5 front offset +35mm

19" x 9.5 rear offset +36mm



That's not by choice.. it's specs for wheels i want from tirerack.

Front is good..rear can be better. with a 9.5'' width..25 offset is perfect for a sedan and 30 is perfect for the coupe, the flushest you can go w/o rolling fenders.

Those wheels will fit your car without any issue. A more commonly offered rear offset on the E9x chassis is a 19x9.5 ET33, but visually, you really can't notice the 3mm difference by using a wheel that is a 19x9.5 ET36.

Basically,
the lower the offset# the more the wheel will stick out from the center of the car (closer to the fender) at any given rim width, VS. a higher # offset being closer to the inside of the car, and "sinking" into the fenders.

an et20 will be more flush then an et40

Hope this helps
