help me out!

I can't keep my steelies on my car any longer! I sold my 18" RS-GT gunmetal rims.. and now I am looking for 19" inch.. well is 19x8 gonna fit my car? no rubbing at all? and where can I buy 19" for a cheap price (IN gunmetal and polished lip)?

and what do you guys think about this rims?
/19 tires right?

19" will fit my car in 225/35 tires right?

EDITED:
also I am looking for some lambo doors!!! and Wings West Extreme Flares!

I think 19x8 is too big for our cars. Try 19x7.5

I'm running Axis Mesh 2's 19x8's with 215/35/19" Falken St-115's.. and I'm dropped on B&G's and the only rubbing I do is when I completly lock the wheel right or left...

Are you buying these private or from a site/vendor? Vendor should be able to offer you a substitution for cheap or same price.

yea you will. 215/35/19 is what i would get. 225 is a bit too wide and most likely you'll have problems

thanks for all the replies.. I just realize.. i drive my car every single day.. and I don't think 19" will be ideal for my car.. i would probably settle on another set of 18s.. and my choices are

1:

2:

1 or 2? and 225/40/18 is good enough right?
