I'm new to this also - does +38 offset apply to 19" wheels (19x9,5) on stock suspension also? I'm thinking if I did wheels I'd probably want to fit coilovers too just to have a perfect look.


But if I could only do one item at a time, am I better off to fit coilovers first, then purchase wheels - or can I get wheels that fit with stock suspension, that will still have the correct offset to suit coilovers? To me getting the wheels is going to give the look that lift more than the suspension drop so I'm more excited to get them done first - but if they need a different offset to suit the coilovers, it's probably best to wait and get suspension done then wheels, on the same day, right?


The other thing is are 19's overkill - 18's look good and would probably give a nice around town drive than 19's due to the extra rubber? I know its a personal thing but would be interested in hearing what people thought on that..
