Default Rims 19x8.5 19x10 - will they fit

I have a sock-suspension Enthusiast and I have a question regarding the 19" rims. Will those rims fit my car so there would be no rubbing... The rim would be 19x8.5 front and 19x10 back.

How would it look with a stock-suspension. I don't want my baby to look like a truck

Depends on the offset. Anything above +20 on the rears should be OK on stock suspension. Though if you do run a low offset and plan on lowering, you might have some rubbing problems. Also not lowering and running something like 245/35 and 275/35 will show a lot of wheel gap. Not nearly turck like but definitely noticeable. Good luck with the seach!

assuming your going to run a n 18-22mm offset front & 23-28mm offset rear your stance will look great. these offsets will also allow you to lower the z later if you wish to do so. of course tire size will play a big role in wether you will have rubbing issues or not. choose your tire size & offset wisely. the wheel gap comments are opinionated. yes i personally like my lowered z opposed to those that are not but i dont think my z looked bad at all before i lowered my z wearing aftermarket 19" wheels.
you can go with a more agressive offset if you want but may need to do some fender rolling. for example, the wheel sizes you mentioned with a 15mm front & 20mm offset rear looks amaizing on the z but would require fender lip rolling of you lowered your z. i personally love the heavy offset 9.5" front & 10.5" rear wheel setups, it makes the z look so aggressive. i just feared the fender rolling as i didnt want obvious paint chipping or some other associated problems common to fender lip rolling.......best of luck!

You can also have the fenders cut instead of rolled to avoid paint cracking.
