All depends on what you want to accomplish with the set up.
you want flush, you want wide, you want stock look?

The wider the rim with lower offsets the more concave wheels typically run.
Are you lowered or plan on lowering?

Ive thought about installing some springs and going with an 18" wheel to save a couple bucks on rubber.. but havent really thought this into great detail lol (obviously)

Do the lower ET make the wheel a lower offset?

Well here are some options:

My current set up -
19x8.5 et35 fronts (235/35/19 tires)
19x9.5 et20 rears (265/30/19 tires)

H&R Sport Springs

rear fenders are rolled a bit as my rear offsets are a bit aggressive.

More of a stock set up -
19x8.5 et35 fronts (235/35/19 tires)
19x9.5 et33 rears (265/30/19 tires)

Requires no fender modifications with or without a drop.

This set up is probably the most common set up on the forum if I had to guess.
But then you can use spacers to try and get the wheels out as far as you want, will be almost flush without spacers.
