Keep in mind you'll need 4 coupe 19 fronts for your sedan as the offset for the rears is different. (Coupe has staggered setup)

I'm thinking he wants the staggered set up. I don't know why any one would do this, but it seems a lot of people like this look and are willing to deal with the short tire life to get it. Not being able to rotate the tires, that when properly rotated only get 20,000 miles, seems crazy to me. But if you have the money to replace tires every 12,000 miles or can deal with the road noise, then more power to you.

Fair enough. I wouldn't want the understeer that setup would bring. So forged coupe 19 rears will fit on the sedan rear? My dealer said the offset was wrong so they wouldn't fit.

you'll have to do a quick search on the offsetof the stock 19s. I don't know off hand what it is. There's a ton of tire and offset dialogues on here. I would not just listen to the dealer on issues like this, becasue it may not be the idal setup for them, but it may work just fine. They're not going to take the risk of telling you it's okay if it's not a stock set up.

i found a a mint set with wheels and tires locally basically brand new for $1200. the wheels fit my sedan perfectly with no rubbing issues whats so ever. car seems to be a bit more snug around turns as well havnt experienced any "oversteer" at all either...after lowering with 3+ people i get some minor rubbing when goign over bumps and such...i will have my fenders rolled on rears b/c i dropped my sedan with h techs....
