19X10.5, will they fit?

I MUST have the Volk GT-S wheels. they only come in 19's so i thought i would get like 9.5 in the front and 10.5 in the back. I can get either 18, 17, 8, or -2 offset in back and 14, 5, or 4 in the front. There are more offsets, but i those are the lowest. So what offset do you recommend, and how hard is it gonna be to fit those bad boys in there? I know i will have to roll, maybe pull. I would totally do flares to, if thats what i have to do. So yeah, give me your suggestions on what offset i should use. Oh and what tire size would work good, without any stupid stretching?

my bad, S13 of course! wouldn't 255 be pretty stretched? I was thinking more like 275. How hard would it be to get these into an s13, with over fenders, and possibly flares?

hmm no i do not think 255 is really streched much, a little bit. but not anything near the pictures you posted of not likeing stretched tires. If youwere to put these in stock fenders you would need a roll and a nice big pull.what size of fenders were you thinking? i think a 50-70mm fender may look nice, on 10.5 -2

PS. personally i would just roll and pull the **** out of the fenders, i think it looks better than over fenders but thats just my opinoun.

Yeah idk about the tires. I would just like the extra traction. I think 50's would look good. maybe 30's with some roll and pull. i havent even seen pulled fenders so i cant really say if i like it or not.

pulled fenders looks pretty dope, but its hard to do. get origin fenders because they are the nicest ones for a decent price. get the lowest offset you can get and make them fit, you will be happy later. 245-255-ish sounds about right.

yeah i was already thinking about going with Origin. I'm gonna get the Stream Kit. i havent seen it on that many cars. its usually the stylish or the aggressive. personally, i think the aggresive is ugly. but whatever. so how do you even pull fenders? i know how to roll it, but i tried to search on how to pull. what do you have to do?

obtain fender roller, torch, heat gun, body hammers, body filler; heat up and stretch metal with fender roller. use body hammers to straighen thigs up if needed, then smooth it out finally with body filler and sand.

something like that.

sounds hard. i think i'll go 30 up front and 50 in the back with some sexy flares all around. what is the best way to not have rivets on the flares. i think that looks like crap, but i havent seen any without them. i guess i would just have to glass it over or fill it with body filler??? that would be a ***** if i ever have to take them off though....the steps you take just to have a sexy car...

rivets FTW

i would get origin 20mm for the front and leave the back stock and run the 9.5 +4 and the 10.5 +8 and just pull the rear because the -2 isnt gonna be very flush with a 50mm overfender...
