Question Forgestar F14 wheel questions?

OK guys, I am ready to pull the trigger on some wheels now. I have researched and researched and picked a wheel! I am going with matte black Forgestar F14's. I am definitely getting 19's.

I want to get 19x8.5 for the front so I can save some expense and reuse my 245/45/19 factory tires.

I'm thinking either 19x10 or 19x11 for the rears. I will used 275-305 size rear tires.

I will eventually lower the car 1-1.5" front and rear.....waiting to see exactly how the car sits with these wheels.

My question is, what is a good offset that will push the wheels out to the fender edges but not past them, and not rub when lowered 1-1.5"?


19x8.5 offset with 245/45/19 tires on front???


19x10 offset with 275/40/19 or possibly 285/35/19 tires on back??
19x11 offset with 295-305/30/19 tires on back??


Thanks,
Derrick

I did order the wheels. Got the 19x9 front and 19x10 rears...in Matte Black. I love them! It took about 6 weeks to get them in. I got Hankook Ventus V12 rubber on them 255/35 front, 295/30 rear.
