Question 19x9.5 Ruff 278s

Hey everyone, I'm new to LS1tech (post mainly on CZ28.com). I am currently running 18x9.5s on my LT1 Z, but want to go to a 19 inch wheel. This is a pic of my current setup:



I really like the Ruff Racing 278s in Black. I have searched the wheel forum for "Ruff," and have read most of the Ruff stories. My main question is this: Can I run 19x9.5s all the way around, with a 40mm offset (if not, what would be the best offset for 19s on all four corners)? Will I have any issues with the 5x120mm bolt pattern? Will I need any hub-centric adapters (if so, where can I buy these?)?

Has anyone ever purchased from spdepot01 on ebay? Is eBay the only place to buy these wheels? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all for your help!

They will bolt right up, no problem. I have no info on that ebay person you are reffering to so can't help you there. Ebay seems to be the only place right now to get ruff wheels unless you live in socal. There is a shop in pacoima called http://www.need4speedmotors.com/index.asp?MMP=1 that sells em and they are really cool people, excellent customer service. I highly recommend them to all socal people looking for any wheels.
