19x8.5 et38
19x10 et44
The tire sizes are wrong, but I will fix that next summer. Previous owner liked "stretch". I don't. Tires are basically new though, so they will work for now.
Suspension is CKS. (Horrible suspension, everything is rusting and corroded.)

Holy sh**!!!
Been away from this forum for a long time but this thread is still going?
Amazing!!!
I have been running the KW V3 coilovers for almost 5 years now. Zero issues.
Plus tire size is better. More comfortable, no speedo error and in my opinion looks better.
245/40/19 front 275/35/19 rear.
BBS CHRs are bomb proof. Have a black set for summer and a titanium grey set with blizzaks for winter.
This car is still AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What are the specs on your CHR's? I've got a set of BBS LM's and was going to do 245/35/19 front's, but you mention 245/40/19... is that correct? If you run a 245/40/19 I think your overall diameter is about an 1" over stock.

Can someone provide a picture of a square set up on 19x8.5? possibly with a 35 offset.
Really would like miro 111 but idk how the 35 offset is going to look like, most pictures i have found the wheels were super concave with around 20 offset.
Also for bbs LM (style like) wheels, how big is the lip with a 35 offset? I will be lowering my car and I was about to buy wheels that are 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 but the rear offset was 30 and front was 35. People where saying i might have to roll my fenders which I dont want to do.
