The 19x9.5 are going to stick out AT LEAST an inch and a half. I have 19x8.5 +34 wheels on my Alero and the fronts sit about 1/8" outside the fender with a 245/35 tire, the rear is flush. That, and why do you want staggered wheels for a FWD car?

Both sets of wheels should bolt on to your car, assuming the hub bore is large enough.

with that offset you may have a little poke but something some rolled fenders cant take care of.

Thanks for the info guys, it is appreciated...
slow- the fronts are only 8" the rear is the 9.5"... only reason I was really looking at these is due to the price, it is within reason for me, and I like the look of the wheels... However, I have no real clue how to judge fitment, that's why I asked...

Really i'd like to see that, I got same wheel size and offset with 255/30 tires and in the front they are right flush,, for the rear I had to get a 1/4in spacer to make them flush with the fender ... I also got about a 3.25 inch drop

I have 19x8.5 +34 wheels on my Alero and the fronts sit about 1/8" outside the fender with a 245/35 tire, the rear is flush.

and like he said the 9,5 can only go in the back, in the front it will rub when turning... and will be about 1 inch too wide, leoalero had a staggered setup with his 20's and had to widen the rear by 2 inch but he had 10.5 wide in the rear

The second set would be perfect if you get some spacers, 5mm for the front and 10mm for the rear, but for 10mm spacer you'll need 10mm longer wheel stud otherwise you won't be able to securely tighten the wheel...

So these look like the rims I will most likely be getting, I just have a quick question regarding the tire size and actual speedometer reading after putting them on. tire size is 245/35/20, they were on a 2003 regal.

using this calculator (http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html), it states that it is 7.6% slow, thus 60mph is actually 64.6mph...

however, this calculator says it would go the other way and it would slow me down...

It makes sense to me that I would be going faster, just want to clarify for sure...
Thanks

Bigger diameter= you're going faster than your speedo says.

The calculator I frequently use said it would be 6.3% too slow, meaning 60mph on the speedometer would actually be 63.8. Also, are these low offset wheels? If not you might have an issue clearing the base of the struts. Like previously stated, I have 245/35/19 tires and I can't get a finger between my tire and struts.

Wow, those are almost 2" larger in diameter than the stock tires... They might rub on the spring perch.

Thanks for the feedback... It will come down to the test fit, if they clear everything I will have new rims, if not, the search will continue...

Not gonna work. It is possible that a machine shop could bore the holes larger but...
