You really ought to do a search, but it also really dependson how you want the car to look.

What look at you trying to achieve?? Aggessive or conservative?

The rim will have a flat look at that offset, so if you're looking to get an aggressive concave look go lower like +22 offset.

Agreed. +22 offsets all around will be okay.....as long as you dont drop too low. The 275 in the rear might rub a little on hard bumps.

Ick...exnay. If you use 8.5 and 9.5...then +22 all around will be fine. Spring for the extra cash and get the 9.5 front and 10.5 rears though.

If you are looking for deeper lips...then the TE37's are not the ones to get. You would need to get a 2 piece rims...forged or cast. You can get "safer" offsets with a deeper lip per rim. The one piece will only give you a slightly concave look versus the deep lip appearance.

I had 2 sets of TE37's. A 8.5 front +22 and a 10.5 rear +30 also a 9.5 front +22 and a 10.5 rear +12. The lips are roughly the same. Meaning that the 8.5 and 9.5 with +22 offsets were about 3/4 of an inch and the 10.5 rears +22 and +12 had about an inch and a quarter each.

+22 offsets on the 19's are meant for the Brembo brake versions....so those are the ones you would want for the concave look, whether you have Brembo's or not.

Goodluck and make sure you post pictures.
