Checkout these two threads. Being white these two look particularly jaw dropping on your color.

yeah i agree, for aggressive sporty look, graphite and black is definitely the way to go. if you want classy look, then it's another story

I can understand some people like it but I don't like white and black in particular cause from a distance it looks like a hubcap, too much contrast.>graphite maybe ....

black rims only for black gs's (the best color), or boring siilver

HELP....ok so i found some wheels i may purchase...the only problem is i cant decide on the rear offset!!! the rear options are 19x9.5 +35 or +45...i know the +45 will fit no problems...but the +35 will get closer to the flush fit....but just how close and will i need to mod my fenders? Rominl, i read your fitment...but you dont list this size option....thanks for any advice....maybe adding some negative camber will help...mine is set at stock right now. i know i have some room for adjustment

I thought he was just asking about the rear, in which case it should fit fine. I don't even think you will need to mod the fender but you are right at the threshold.

sorry, brain farts

yeah, 9.5 +35 should be ok, very marginal and you might have to shave the fender a bit, but that will do all the trick
