Default Need Wheel Advice

I have these RH J5 19x 9, 19x 10.5 +26 rims on my car now. With 31mm spacers in the front, the offset is at -5. Rear doesn't have one yet.
So i was thinking, should i stack up 15mm spacers in the front and get like another pair of 31mm spacers for the rear?
The fenders are pulled. going for semi hella flush.
Or
Should i pick up Varrstoen 19x 9.5, 19x10.5 +0 rims and then add 20mm spacers front and like 10mm spacers in the rear?

The first option will save me about $200.

Did I read that right? You want to install a spacer and then bolt another spacer on that one?

Stacking spacers is dangerous.

So instead of spending the money to be "hellaflush" with the correct wheels, you are trying to be "hellaflush" with stacked spacers and shitty wheels?

I'm surprised the "hellaflush" guys dont laugh at you.

I would suggest buying a full set of wheels vs just rims. a lot more functional

Stacking spacers does not end well, saw this on tumblr a while ago. Buy wheels that fit, or only use ONE spacer.

OP, seems like you're on a budget so just keep your current setup.
