Default What offset and tire combo for these wheels?

I'm looking into purchasing a set of wheels for my new s2000 that i just picked up but doing a little research my idea might be pooched.. I wanted to go with a 19x8.5 in the front and a 19x9.5 in the back to give that wide look with a nice chrome lip.. I found a set of wheels that i fell for and the fitment says it possible however when i phone they tell me that its not and i have to keep looking.. Just wondering if there are any offsets that i could stay between and the best tire sizes for those offsets.. below is the link for the wheels..

http://www.wheelsnext.com/wheels-tires-pac...Hyperblack.html

Please let me know if this is possible or if i need to go to a 18x8 and a 18x9 setupd instead.. id hate to do that because i like this style of wheel..

Thanks..

btw this is my first s2k and i'm luvin it...

Stay away from wheelsnext. Check the vendor threads and see what is available in s2000 fitment. For the split 5 spoke look, I'd recommend the Work Emotion CR Kai in 17 x 9 +44 all around.

I did not see anywhere where they list the offset of the wheels. To run those wheels you are going to need a mid 60's offset. Or you are going to need to do some fender modification.
