Default about to purchase some rims; need some opinions and to know if they fit

just a few questions: they are sportec mono 10's bi color in 19s.

heres a link to audizine just to serve for picture purpose...these aren't the exact rims i'm buying, but just a picture

http://www.audizine.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=9996&cat=48&date=1 220732597

a) i have silver and wanted to know if you think the bi color would look good
b) the guy has them on a newer passat and i wanted to know if they fit.
c) we have 5x112 right?

d) i'm just assuming that if the rims are 5x112 with 35mm offset and running 235/35/19, they should fit right?

thanks

Default Depending on how low you are...they is a chance they will rub. When I was rocking my 19x8.5"

wheels with 235's, I was pretty low, and I rubbed all over the place.

I'm not lowered so I wouldn't lower it too much

Default If you're stock height

You'll look like a Hummer with donks.

Default I would think you could get a good stance without having to lower the car as much as you would with

18's. no?
