Default wheel question

Hi, I was wondering if these wheels will fit on a SC? Friend selling them very cheap.

Volk SF Challenge
19x8.5 and 19x9.5
Offset 21 front and 23 rear
On 245 35 19 and 275 35 19

Friend says it might fit but might stick out of fender so if I dont lower it too much it should be ok. Well before I go there and test fit and all.. want to get your input.

Thanks.

will fit no problem. i have the same setup except +18 offsets (f/r). your settings are conservative if you plan to lower the car.

yup will fit no problem, and actually you can go a bit more aggressive (if available)

The guy is giving me a great price for Volks.. the wheels are in perfect condition, no curbs, no scratches, looks brand new and tires have like 90% on all 4. Im just thinking that the SF Challenge has thin spokes that might look good on a smaller car but might be a bit weird on the SC. From a profile view, the SC is a big body car and I always admired big spokes, multispokes, or mesh on this car, but thin 5 spoke wheel might not look right. Hes offering $2500 for Volk 19s on Goodyear Eagles. I'm a little hesitant.

I paid under $2K for 19s for my GS. Given their not Volks but still brand new with decent tires. I just want something a little better than stock to roll on and I hate the ride quality on the runflats. My gf is driving the SC now and she can care less about what wheel is on there. I drive it maybe once or twice a week.

big spokes would look nice on this car. not too big but not too small.
