That way I can get wide tires to go along with my wide wheels.
Now go suck each other's cocks!

Mark, you know me well enough to know that I'm going to try and stuff the widest tire possible in my wheel wells. My guess is that I'm going to want to stick with the 8.5" wheels with a higher offset. That way I can get wide tires to go along with my wide wheels. I just don't see the point of going with wider wheels, but keeping the same tire size I already have. I'd just be adding weight, which to me is pretty pointless.
yeah, i know..

Really, the main reason is to get wider tires and so I don't have to run spacers on my wheels to clear my brakes.

I'm in love with the RonJon Inspyre rims and have been saving up to get them over the last three months. I was either going to purchase the Satin Silver or the Raven black in 19..... I attempt to order today only to find out those colors no longer exist (fml). They have the rims in chrome for dirt cheap but I think that will be too much silver on my car. Can I please get any1's opinion on this?

You can get them and then have them painted. I've seen them on a sedan and they look sweet.

Will 19 be too big? That's all they have left. Lol

It's all up to what you want. 19's look good, but performance suffers from larger heavier wheels.

Will 17x8 +35's all around fit my coupe, without fender mods and without camber or stretch? Probably going with a mild drop, deff NOT slammed. Would I have to run silly sized spacers to get good fittmant out of these specs? Also looking for a good meaty tire size for this setup if it will work. Thanks.

Im considering picking up this:
"A complete set of Mitsubishi Evolution (Evo) 8 Enkei wheels for sale with 235-45 R17 Dunlop Direzza Z1 star spec tires. "
For around 500. The tires have 70% tread and the wheels are 8 inches wide with 38+mm offset. I wouldn't have any issues would I?
EDIT: made it more clear

You will need Mitsubishi or Toyota lug nuts. Mitsubishi and Toyota uses the flat lug nut. Evo 8 wheels are only 17x8 +35 offset if I'm right. Good thing Mitsu and Toyota uses a 12x1.5 bolt pattern.
