yeah.. but 1200 for ssr gt3 19" will somehow cure the headache.. lol..
okay.. its getting more confusing.. lets just get onto the solution.. so.. i believe the rear should be fine having the offset of 43mm.. ill install an adapter and 15mm spacer..
for the front.. will an adapter and 20mm spacer do the job here??

ok....
For the fronts a 19x9 with a +31 will be fine... won't look overly tucked. At most you could get a 10mm spacer
For the rears a 19x10.5 with a +43 will be fine.... won't look overly tucked. You could run a 15 mm spacer, or a 20mm spacer depending on tire.
If it were my car.... and I am running the same offsets on a set of 18" comp-H ssr wheels with the same widths.
Run no spacer in the front
Run a 15mm spacer in the rear
^ that is about as painfully simple as it gets and will allow you to run just about any size tire you want and not have to worry about rubbing or fender rolling.
Still need to make sure you are getting 5x114.3 bolt pattern on the wheels. I have no idea how you are going to run an adapter to make the wheels fit the bolt pattern???? The adapter itself would be a spacer of somesort and this would bring us right back to square one. plain and simple, you can work around a less than desired offset, but if the bolt pattern is off, the planets have to allign to make it work

you seem hellbent on getting these so go ahead why even ask, you will probably regret it once you have to deal with adapter and spacer that you will have wished you had spent a little more on the right wheel.

i mean why not if it is possible.. its possible with correct adapters and spacers.. i mean.. i have my wheel shop installing for free as i just got into accident.. all i need is to give them the wheels.. they might even order the adapters and spacers as long as i tell them which ones and i dont have to go thru the trouble..

You just don't get it. Everyone is giving you great advice, and you are ignoring it completely and coming back with nonsense.
1) Those wheels are crap.
2) They are the wrong bolt pattern
3) The offset is too positive, meaning they will be far too tucked in. You will have a miniscule "lip" and/ or minisclue "concavity" and they won't look like sportscar wheels. They will be tucked way inside the fender and you will look like the biggest noob that managed to get his hands on a 350Z.
We're just trying to help you out man.
Buy some wheels with a 5x 114.3 bolt pattern and a nice 19X 9.5 +22 and 19 X 10.5 +22 size like everyone else and everything will be fine.

adapters + spacers sounds like a recipe for another accident down the road - about as ghetto as it gets.
One or the other might be safe - both sounds like an accident waiting to happen to me

1) well, look who's rims are talking,
2) i know.. that what adapters are for
3)i am very aware of this.. and thats why i wanna find the solution for this..
not trying to be an a** but dont u people get it? i just got an accident and my insurance is NOT covering for the whole damage.. thats why i wanted to get the rims as cheap as possible.. my 4 aftermarkets wheels are ruined in the accident and im looking for a new ones.. here my good friend selling them for 1200 even if it is for BMW.. at least he's helping me with something..

And, just to play fair here are some pics of my wheels.

well.. we all do have different taste about wheels.. about the "as cheap as possible" please try to be in my shoe.. im just 19 and stil studyin in ucsd.. i dont have a fixed job and am an international student.. well my parents help me pay for the tuition fee.. but i paid for the car parts out from my own pocket..
yeah.. im still researching.. JETPILOT told me that i might not need the spacer.. just an adapter.. that sounds a good idea too..
i got advice not to take the wheels.. thats also an idea isnt it and im considering it too..
in any case.. i forgot to mention one ver IMPORTANT thing.. its not that i have to buy these wheels and the gambling if they are going to fit.. my friend let me bring these wheels to the body shop and try installing them and running them together.. so i dont have to buy these wheels straight.. so i think this is why you guys think that im rooting for the wheels and ignoring you guys' advices.. im looking for adapters/spacers for the wheels.. and try to install them.. if it doesnt work then im not buying them.. as simple as that..
sorry for the confusion guys.. this thread got hotter.. lol.. my apologies to everyone especially 2TH POWER..

so you will PAY for the adapters/spacers and installation? and if they don't fit you won't buy the wheels? so that would be 300-500 (quoting you) wasted? why not use that 300-500 + 1200 to get you a nice set of wheels that fit correctly. or ask your parents for a little more (loan?) to get correct wheels? heck they are already paying your tuition and car, since you said you are just paying for car parts.
