PFA... I'd like to do a square setup with either of these wheels (they're my two frontrunners) in silver. Does anybody have a good size & offset for a square setup? Experience with either of these wheels you want to share? Rec for one over the other?

I want to be able to rotate tires and desire 19" or 20", haven't decided... I don't think the Classic5s even come smaller than 20". Going on a '19 GT with a 1" drop. Thanks for any help!

I have CF5 in silver 19 x 10 +40 on a 19 VB GT. I use a 5mm spacer on front with 275/40-19 PS 4S all around. Stock height here.

What spacer did you buy? And how do you like them?

I love these wheels. Had them on my previous car, (S60 volvo, 18*8 though). Eibach spacers. Lots of places sell 5/6mm thick spacers. Can't go to thick or you need longer studs as you lose thread engagement. 19x10 weigh about 24lbs each. Stock wheels were closer to 32/33lbs in 19x9 and 19x9.5. Very easy to clean vs wheels with lots of spokes. My $.02. I also purchased simple 5 spoke wheels for my DD, Ridgeline pickup!! That how much I like simple 5 spoke wheels. Of course now I really should paint the calipers!!!
