I wonder why the difference in offset?
I don't want to run huge tires. I don't want to add a bunch of weight and tire noise just for looks.
I went from stock 18x8" wheels with 235/50/18's on them to 19x10" with 285/35/19 Continental ExtremeContactSport tires and the new combo weighs 1 lb LESS per corner. I can't recommend these tires enough, very quiet and smooth running... I was totally shocked and blown away at how well they ride compared to the Pirelli PZeroa A/S that came on the car. Went with symmetrical setup so I can rotate tires front to back so therefore you will want a 35-40 mm offset if that is the case. The difference in offset is to tuck the rear wheels in more for that flush look. Here is mine with a 32mm offset, I wanted 35 but Ace said this was the one they recommend... I would insist on the 35 if I could do it again but 3mm (1/8 inch) is a small difference.

wow that's a healthy amount of poke. @Randy I would keep looking - 9.5 or 10 square really is a very good setup.

The other wheel I am looking at is project6. They take the guess work out of it.

Ace said their experience was ET32 for the 19x10 setup on S550 so I went with that, I would think that 3mm further in would still make my combo poke out still, maybe I should measure to see if I got what I paid for... I can easily stick a finger in between the struts and the wheels at their closest point of engagement.
