Default Help deciding what wheels?

Alright so I have pretty much narrowed my choice down to these wheels here. Just kinda stuck which ones I want exactly. I am a huge face of the sochi but I am extremely torn with all these wheels. Keep in mind all of these wheels are planning to be a 19" staggered setup 8 in the from and 9.5 in the rear.

Here is my car to have an idea of what ti would go on. Keep in mind I really enjoy black wheels but I am open to considering other color options. So throw some ideas out for me please!

I guess my main question is, if I had my rear fenders rolled what would you guys think the widest wheel I could go? I really want to run the 10.5 wide wheels on my car, but is it possible? Also what offset would be best if I ran that width?

I didn't read any of your thread, just the pictures and the fact that it looks like you want to find wheels and that your options are the ones that you mentioned.

I'm telling you, those Sochi's (which are the first option you posted) are going to look way way sick on that xB man. You won't go wrong with those, especially since you're lowered.

I think its def the sochi for sure at this point. So many people have told me that and it was my original favorite. Now to wait for nicer weather and a chance to go home from my military school to put the shoes on.

You can run a 10.5 all around, but you'll need pulled fenders and camber dialed in. A 235/35R19 wrap and offset around the +25mm range should work.
This is all in relation to the fenders. You'll have to have stiff suspension and I'm not 100% positive if the strut or coilover will clear.

Have you considered the Avant Garde M550? Very similar to the Sochi, but cleaner in my opinion.

I am actually planning on doing the M550 at this point because they look the same and through a particular website I can get a deeper military discount on those then the sochi

I vote for the second photoshopped wheel. A little lip and concave looks great.
