I realized its not cheap, ive already done coilovers camber/toe arms, spacers, tires and multiple alignments. All i lack is new rims, the point of this thread is to get a decent hellaflush look without getting new rims, i "will" get better offset rims in the future, but for now just trying to get these to work.

Do what Yoshi said. If there's anyone to listen to for this kind of look its him. What he said will get you on the right track.
I'll echo what others said about getting differant wheels later tho. Shoot for as close to a 0 offset as you can and try to get something around at least 10 wide up front and 11 wide out back while you're at it.

Yeah thats what im going to do now, only thing tho is i was trying to go for 0 offset, atm im -3 in the back with spacers, but it looks "mild" flush to me and wanted advice on how im sopose to make it more aggressive. Seems like im going to need to go more negative with more spacer sadly. The idea of spacers is scary enough.

They're 19x10 in the back. Yours looks good. Mine is -3 and doesnt look nearly as good, i wonder why since its just about the same, if i added another -5 i wonder what that would do

Because your wheel is "small" for this kind of look you'll either have to go an even lower offset I think or run a wider rim Id say. Granted I'm no expert at this, this is actually my first attempt. Maybe someone else can chime in but from what I'm seeing thats what I would guess.
You at 19x10 -3

Me at 19x11 -5 (before I raised the back a little due to rub lol..)

wow thats a huuuge difference, looks way better. I didnt think one size differnce in width would make that big of a change. I really wish i had the money for new rims now

DeftoneZ is on the right track. For a simple comparasion, lets assume both of you had the same offset (You: 19x10 at 0 offset, Him: 19x11 at 0 offset). Basically, the wider the wheel the less aggressive the offset can be and still achieve the same stance. Think of it this way, his rear wheel is 1 inch ( or 25.4mm) wider than ours. That equates to about 12.7 additional millimeters on the inner and outer position of the rim. So he has 12.7mm less clearance inside his wheel well and the outer position of his rim will stick out an additional 12.7mm more than yours. This means that the 19x10 needs to be 12.7mm more aggressive to achieve the same outer rim position. So in other words, a 19x10 would have to be approximately -13 (12.7mm rounded up) offset to have the same outer rim position as a 19x11 at 0 offset.
So in reality if you wanted his exact stance, your offset for the 19x10 would have to be approximately -18. Sorry for the long answer but understanding this fully will help you get the stance you want. Especially, if you plan on purchasing some more expensive wheels in the future. Thats a high dollar item and the last thing you want is to unhappy with your stance.

^^very well said! .
OP; listen to all the folks here they have given you good advice, one way or another. My advice or input is this is not the style or way to the cheap way because because there is really no cheap way. This is a very expensive style and soon you will realize why. My. 02$
