Is anyone running these offsets? 19x9 19x10 +9 and -8?

LexisGS, I just put the rear on (keep in mind my car is still stock height) and I can tell it will rub if lowered. It pokes out but not bad. Anyways, too much for me to put them on.

I can have the back of the rim shaved down to increase the offset?

Listen to us three Henry(Rominl), Passnu2(Mike) and LexiGS(Steve), ***PLEASE DON"T DO IT***
Well....if it's made in forged, the max length you can shave is 3mm, otherwise you might get the chance of cracked center, but still not worth to just shave only that 3mm on any wheels. Not too safe!

Not going to shave the wheel to increase the offset. I would have to take it down way too much so I decided to sell the rims.

Thanks for the advice.
