Default Offset question --please help!!

I am looking at getting a set of 19" Axis Shines that i found for pretty cheap... the only question I have is the front offset is 35mm and the rear is 40mm and the widths are 8.5" in the front and 9.5" in the back...would wheel spacers be feasible or should I just look for another set with the proper offsets.. Also my Z is slammed about 2" and I may have to roll the fenders... any advice would be much appreciated.. thanks.

i think your wheels will be looking a bit too sunken into the car. get +30 or lower offsets.

Should you buy proper fitting wheels

or

improper fitting wheels with spacers? I think you know the answer.

Why would you need to roll the fenders unless you put very large tires on?
With a standard 245/275 tire combo, you wouldn't NEED to roll the fenders. If the deal is right and you like the wheels, go for it. You can always add the hubcentric spacers later - just factor that cost into your budget.

Those are very modest offsets that are actually pretty close to stock. Get the right aspect tires and you shouldn't need to roll your fenders as scotts300 stated. Now whether it will look decent or not...who knows.
