(this was his earlier post)
I have a base car and ordered the XO Veronas in the 19 and 20 configuration. Will this throw off my speedometer?

Looks like he purchased XO Veronas, hopefully he will post some pics!!

I bought them from an individual on this forum that bought them for his car but never took them out of the box because he decided to a widebody kit and they wouldn't work for him.

I've always been fond of those wheels but they look like they'd rub if you hit a big bump. What's the width and offset?

Worried about rubbing if I did? I'll be checking with Luxury Wheel to see if there will be issues. I think the car they have on their advertisement for the wheels is lowered.
