Offset as well as wheel design play a huge factor. Most 3GS owners go with 20's but there are many guys with 19's. I have yet to get wheels and have debated on size for a while. When the time comes, I'll definitely go for 20's.

Try searching.

i think you should be fine =] test fit? maybe no one's come across ur setup yet.... anywho, if u can fit 20's with a more agressive offset, i'm sure u can fit 19s all the same =]

haha....

are you going to lower the car

19x9 I would be +35 to +38 (depending on your drop) I am +35 for reference 20x9 lowered ~2"...you can see my car to see if that is the "look" or style you want.

The rear.....Are you going to shave the rear panels

give me more info and I will tell you my opinion. I am sure others will help also

here is a good one for reference. This car is lowered ~1" with no fender mods front or rear. Only difference is you would be 19". See the offsets on this car for reference.

I see no reason this wont work. you are ~1" lowered and with no fender mods this will work. Its going to look similar to the thread I posted with the offset.

unless you want to stretch your tires I would go either 245/255 up front and 275/285 in the rear.
