Hi Dirrrty,
Best wishes for 2009,
Well, if your rims are OEM (9,5X19), ET is 28 for the rear and ET is 12 for the front (8,5X19).
Anyway in all cases, it is (should be) written on the other side of the rim...

heres a picture of the wheels on my car not really sure if it helps but why not give it a shot. if not then 15min to unmount and mount wheels back on shouldnt be a problem.

Hard to tell from that angle, it I had to guess it M5 rear off set. Do you have any more pictures showing the rear rim with more angle on it as it relates to the top of the rear fender??? would help, but looking at the top of the rear fender, looks like M5 as it looks sunk in a bit.

See how close my rear wheel sits to the edge of the fender....M6 Offset...if yours sits further in you have the M5 offset.
