What size are the wheels? A +38 should clear easily up to 20" wheels, provided you use the right tire size.

Altimatum, rubbing will not be problem if you don't plan on dropping... however, if you plan on droppping, it gets more complicated depending on rim width and tire width... check this thread out... these were all done using 20 x 8.5" wheels on a +35 offset, but that's be about a 3mm difference for what you're trying to do...

If you run 235/40/19's with them, it'll be pretty much a perfect fit with no issues.

those rims looks hella good, just remember that you will be paying out the a** for tires! 19" tires are more expensive thn both 18" and 20"

And your selection is very limited with 19's.
