Looks good. My AWD is also sitting on 19s but without any dropped yet. Just got VVS083 19x8.5 and 19x10 and had a hell of a time balancing the wheels. They're finally balanced after 4 times and 3 shops. I'm gonna wait a bit before I put BCR coils on. The vibration on AWD with drop is what I really don't want to encounter.

What tire size are you using for the front and back.
My wheels are 19x8.5 and 19x10 same as your but with +32offset and +38offset. Tires are 245/35/19 and 285/30/19. I'm pretty sure I'll be okay with a drop in the front but I'm a little concern about the back. Any rubbing with your set up so far?

im not sure, I got them used from Mike1970. He already set it that low.
my offset more aggressive then your. My front tires 235/35/19 which I suppose to go 225/30/19, and the rear 245/35/19. They still rub though, even thought the fenders all shaved. I cant turn my wheel much for the front when I back up from the drive way. I think your tires will rub once it drop

No wonders the tires looked pretty stretched. I'll see how low I can go before they rub. However, I only want to drop just to make the wheel gap smaller. I still want a bit of wheel gap. Maybe a finger or two.

Yeah, hindsight is always 20/20. I should've gone 235/35/19 and 275/30/19.
But my goal was to keep the rolling diameter as close as possible to the stock 225/50/17 and I have to be careful on keeping all four wheel diameter as close as possible on AWD.
