I'm running an 18x9.5 setup. No clearance issues.

I'm looking to get the same wheels, what offset are you thinking about? I was going to go with the 19x8.5 w/+38 offset but I really want the concave look so I may go for the 19x10 w/+20 offset. That may be too aggressive though not sure if it would fit? Maybe someone here can help us both out haha.

basically it is the distance from the centerline of the rim to the wheelhub

explained best here though:
