Opinion 8" or 10" girth?

Fooled ya with the title

I was gonna ask you guys your opinion on a 19x8 or 19x10 width on wheels. I decided to go more economic and american with forged wheels but looks as though this brand doesn't offer the 19x8.5 I was intending.....so anyone have a width of 10? If so...any struggle or added grip? Pros Cons pretty much...I definetely don't wan't so thin @ss wheels...... I know RollinLS is rolling on 19x8.5 and he told me his LS runs great with no problems...but I question with the 10...... that or I'll have to search economic forged brands to fit my wheel budget

8, 19x10 will be a tight fit.

That's what I suspented...not like this is a Pantera car...I just want some good forged rims that fit my size/budget but the only brands I know of will cost my 1000+ per wheel.....that's out of my budget on wheels...I wanna fit 2000 or less budget on these things just because I don't need fancy rims...especially with the economy the way it is alot of people are getting there wheels stolen....even sport bikes are being stolen.

Wheels aint gettin stolen up here in my neck of the woods:

Oh, and I'd go with the 8" width. At least in front.

All depends on the offset of the wheels whether 10" wide wheels will work.

I have 19x8.5" wheels all around on a +46mm offset with zero clearance issues.

See that's the kinda :q:q:q:q I'm looking for...something with great clearance, no wheel well problems but gets the performance and looks you need....I think BOZE FORGED needs to put in 19x8.5 on their lines....they Euro Stixx and Toxic look badass :-D

Not easy finding wheels that fit AND look good for these cars. I went through almost buying three sets (one had been on back order, and the other two looked crappy after seeing them on cars) , buying a set of 18s that looked good but the offset was too low and then bought the ones I have now. Not much to choose from out there in this bolt pattern with the right offset.

Reason why I thought BOZE Forged since Ken Garrison was selling them...and at 250bucks a wheel for forged...that's not bad since the Asanti, MOZ, and iForged are over 1000 per wheel......plus that's like buying an expensive watch that you wear alot.....it's gonna get cratched and worn out so why fork over so much money for one? I'd rather spend thousands on the inside of the car and engine work that won't wear out so easily.
