Wheel Directory: Vertini Dynasty 19x8.5 +30/19x9.5 +35




Alrightie so first things first I am a complete rookie in cars, the FR-S is the first car I buy myself and I decided to start it off with some rims. I know 19s are hard to pull off but I really wanted these rims (they are on their way should be here next week). I got them online because I got a good deal on them. Ill post a pic after Im done here. But anyways I wanted to know what you thought of the fitting for the FR-S I got some help from others but they weren't experts in the car like people on this site. SO I got 19' of course 235-35-19 // 265-30-19. I was wondering if that was ok. I got them with tires installed already and balanced, does this mean I can just install them at home myself with no alignment or anything done professionally?
AND lastly I wanted golden extended lug nuts, any thoughts on that?
Any help is appreciated thank you very much.

No need for an alignment, just install and go. I didn't look up that tire size, but just use an online calculator to make sure the overall diameter of each tire size is pretty close to stock.

Also, without knowing the offset, no one can say if they'll fit correctly between the fender and suspension. Stock-style suspension has less room than coilovers.

I did buy them, I will post pictures. Hopefully 19s aren't too much, I'm a little afraid but 19s were the smallest these came and I really wanted these! I was waiting to love a set and I loved these as soon as I saw them.

Yeah, post up some photos from multiple angles, and also provide the wheel width and offset so I can add these to the Wheel Directory. Thanks!

Never heard of them. What width did you end up getting? 8.5/9.5 f/r? Those are the only 5x100 that I saw available for them.

I think 19s look great on stock body with a minimal drop. Go for it!
