I ordered some Volk GT-C rims and the sizes on the rims are 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rear. I want to run spacers to get the rims flush with the fenders but I am unsure of what size spacers to order. Any insight would be appreciated..Oh and +22 offset
Thank You All

I agree with Gibbs. Mount and drive with them for awhile before committing to spacers. 22 offset is respectable and may suit the look you want.
You also need to consider if you want to drop the car and if you are willing to roll the fenders. Rolling the rear fenders won’t be necessary with a 22 offset and reasonably sized rear tires unless you install a drop and/or spacers.

If you want flush run the 9.5's up front with 10mm spacers and order a set of 10.5's for the rear in +15ish

Offset measurements from wheel manufacturer is not a precise science. As Gibbs mentions; the best way to determine your desired fit is first mounting the wheels with the tires, measure the difference, and then use this measurement to determine the width spacer that provides the esthetic result you want.
In fact when completing this exercise, you may not even want to add a spacer. If you do decide going with a spacer, the measurement will tell you the width you want (spacer-sizing is an exact science).
If you decide to go with a drop, do this (and mount your wheels and tires) and measure before you add the spacer.
