to fit a 10" wide 19" wheel you'll need to roll out the fenders so you don't scrub and probably have something like a +25 offset in the rears.

yes, you want a lower number. the stock offset is +40 i believe and thats with a 6.5" wide wheel. so you'll want a much lower offset with a wheel thats 3.5" wider.

if you're looking at that sized wheel then you should considder getting an offset of +25 for the rears, and about +35 or +38 for the fronts. granted, you are probably going to have to roll your fenders out to fit em.
