Yep, but why not staggered setup?

What's that mean? Can't I just run 19X8.5 with no offset, just run it like that?

staggered is when your rear wheels are wider then the front, gives the car a killer stance.

EDIT: Welcome to the board

Each wheel has an offset. The lower the offset, the further the wheel sits out. If u want the best flush look, get 19x8.5 +32~.

Watch for the caliper clearance. And for the 19", you don't really have many choices unless you don't mind getting them from outside US and can pay $4000+ before the tires.

Yes & No. Depends on which brand you are getting since not all Japanese wheels are customized wheels.
