19x11+15 all around? Or just in the rear?

Got my ES2's put on yesterday. Specs are 18x9.5/10.5 +22 wrapped in 245/40 and 275/40. This is at stock height. Doesn't sit as flush in the back as I had hoped, probably should have gone with 12/15, but for me it's not worth having discount take the tires off, sending back to aspec, getting the others and having Discount put them back on. Wife thinks the backs look too wide. Either way, I think they look better than stock. And they're safer than what I had. What do you guys think?

Thanks. Was thinking maybe a small drop, thought someone made a kit that dropped it only like .5". I just don't feel like rolling fenders and all that. And I can't spend very much on suspension to begin with.

Nevermind, i called and talked to varrstoen.
They are plastic and have to be drilled out in order to be powdercoated.
You can go to 'Prestigewheel.com' and get new rivets. The product number for the rivets(studs/screws) is 'PWARG-119-S'
They sell them in gold or silver

I'm planning on getting a set of es6's for my Silverstone Z. But I'm stuck between either the Gunmetal w/machined lip or these black ones.. Ughh

^^ I prefer the gunmetal spokes with a polished rims. All black makes the tire and wheel appear as one big "black glob."

And... Depending upon the car's color, gloss black spokes with a polished rim could be more attractive.

Also... Not crazy about all the miniature rivets in the ES6.

I agree for your car prob the gunmetal would be a better choice. I went with black on mine just cause the car is black.

Has anyone bought the ES6 18x9.5 +30? I found a great deal on a set. I'd like to get them but I don't know what the fit will be. My car is lowered a good bit on 35th anniversary wheels already. I don't plan on slamming but going for a flush look in fender gap and offset.

You will want different wheels with different offset then.

I tried searching for what they would look like. I can't seem to find any pictures. I would sacrifice a little. It's a pretty good deal.

You need more low offset.
Like around +20 through +10 or even lower
