Before I ordered my wheels I was looking into these and I believe the deep concave only came in 19's. Why don't you just spend a little bit more and order a new set from Getyourwheels and get a better size and offset's

HELLO- We have a winner! This is the best idea yet... OP i would roll with this.

If you are keeping your car at stock height i would suggest staying away from a more aggressive offset as it will look a little odd. When you lower a car with aggressive offsets the wheels will camber in and not look like a 4x4 truck.

If you plan to lower it go with a 19x9.5 +15 to +20 and a 19x11+10 rear
255-30-19 front tire and 305-30-19 rear tire.

If you plan to keep it stock height then go with a 19x9.5+25 to +30 and a 19x11 +15 to +20

My suggestion is to lower your car even a mild drop will make a world of difference when you do a new set of wheels.

Op- Just to give you an idea of how offsets really change the look of your car i put 2 pics of my old 350z

First pic is a 19x9.5+22 front 19x10.5+22 rear
2nd pic is a 19x9.5+12 front and 19x10.5+12 rear
10mm is less then a half inch difference but made the car look a lot more aggressive

Haha it's funny cuz I actually saw some some other pics you posted I'm not sure if they were yours but they were Works and it was those exact same specs I went with except I think I'm gonna run a 285/30 265/35 combo. Ill be stock for about a month but will be lowered on Stance soon after.

I am between a Volk TE37 in matte black in 19 inch with a red pin stripe (same pin stripe used by Nitrouz) mimicking the Time attack they had a couple years back using a 10mm spacer to make the rear go from a 19x10.5+12 to a 10.5+2 the new black center cap OR 19 inch strasse forged R10 gloss black barrel, matte black center, reverse face (bolts hidden) with a red pin stripe in the aggressive offsets I want as previously stated

Both good choices, the R10's are awesome but boy are they pricey. I think there's a set of matte black te-37's in the classifieds right now
