I was looking to swap out my wheels on my 2011 SE and found these on eBay. I emailed the seller and they said that they would fit. They do, however, have a +44 offset. What do you guys/gals think of these? Will the offset push the wheels out closer to the fenders?

are you going to keep your stock wheels? otherwise you should consider going up a size. I have read and heard that it is much harder and more expensive to find 19 inch tires.
I too would like to get summer wheels but I'm just having the most difficult time finding something that looks good with this vehicle.
I really just want something that looks different that doesn't break the bank. The ones i'm looking at are machine polished ones. There are sets of these on eBay for $560 shipped. I can hopefully sell my stock wheels for that much.
As far as tires go, the best tire for the money in the factory size of 235/50/19 is the Bridgestone Dueler Alenza for about $200 each. 600 treadwear, A Traction, A Temp ratings. 20 inch tires are about the same price, but I think she rides firm enough for my tastes. Also, as these OE Dunlops are wearing down (20k miles), they're getting quite noisier. Hopefully I'll get 10k more out of them.

Hmm... something different and that doesnt break the bank. Well since your looking at 19's what about a set of 20's from a Toyota Venza? Factory Toyota/Lexus wheels have a better fitment than some other OEM wheels this goes for aftermarket wheels as well.
I switched the Michys out for Pirelli Neros in 245-50-19 for $175 each. The replacement 235-50-19 Michy was $290 per tire. Made more sense to go with the Pirelli's and replace the other 3 tires. I now have 3 235-50-19 Michys sitting in the garage. If any one is interested in them or wants/needs an extra tire PM they all have 8700 miles on them. The 245 don't rub at all.

the Pirelli Neros in 245-50-19 went on the stock SE 19 rims?
Yes they fit just fine. We have been enjoying them for about 6000 miles now. I put the pressure up to 40PSI and its wonderful-smooth ride,great cornering & no tramlining. The stock Michys just cannot compare. The only issue I have is the tires sing just a bit on graded concrete. Would I go back...NOT A CHANCE. Try'em you'll like them and no fitment issues/rubbing.

thanks for confirming, i might consider doing this when the time comes, so far i have 13000 miles on my oem Michys
but the extra 10mm doesn't affect your regular driving at all other than road noise?
It centers a bit slower. I like the change as it reminds me of my 911=0)
when you have a chance, can you post a pic? just curious if there are any noticeable difference
my plan was to ditch the 19's and go up to 20' with some normal size tires that are cheaper than these odd ball 19' toyota gave us, but if this will do the trick I am going with the Pirellis
