I just got some 19x8.5 offset 32, and some 19x9.5 offset 35. I just wanted to know if im gonna need spacers. Also what is the difference between lug nuts and wheel locks? is a wheel lock the same as a lug nut with a specific tool? thanks.

Welcome.

Put the wheels on the car. Do you clear the suspension and brakes calipers?

If your wheels clear your brakes and fender, you don't NEED spacers. You can put them on if you want more of flush/pushed out look though.


You are correct. Wheel locks are basically lug nuts with a unique pattern that only allows the included tools to remove them. You typically need one wheel lock per wheel (they usually sold in units of 4). If you are looking at different brands, McGard makes a quality wheel lock, although no wheel lock is theft-proof.

need them no! but the wheells will be pushed in so youll need them to get the wheels flush with the fender.

You may have a problem with the rear wheel. It is 21mm closer to the strut housing than the OEM wheel.
