Message	I had thos Stern ST-2's on my car for a few years. Just traded them in for some 18s. I had 19x8.5 F 19x9.5 R. Only problem was the offset was too low on the rear so they rubbed really bad. Dont remember the offset because when I bought them I knew less than I know now, and now I dont know much. haha. I upgraded the brakes, and the rims didnt clear the front by a couple mm's, so I just traded them. They are pretty heavy, mine were chrome, but they look great! Just my opinion. If you're not worried about your 1/4 mile time, or taking her to the track, you cant go wrong with the sterns.
