Default need pictures with volks and offsets

Okay so i have a 2004 Super Black 350z enthusiast model. I been doin alotta researching and am still stuck. I stuck between 19in Volk Gt-7, or 19in Volk Sf-Challenges. Im pretty sure i want Gunmetal on my black 350. So thats one issue figured. Im not sure if i should get 19x8.5 in the front or 19x9.5. What do you guys think? The main one is the rear wheels. I actually want 10.5 but people say that 10.5's lip will stick out from the tire and is easy to get hit, plus it stretches a 275 tire. so i been lookin for pictures with a 19x10 in the back but most people have 10.5. So could you guys give me pitures with these two wheels with either a 8.5 front or 9.5 and a 10 back. Also i still need help with offsets, i also want aggressive offsets. Could u guys help me out. Thanks. much help appreciated. Sorry for the long post.

Wheel offset is how much the wheel will tuck in or stick out. The bigger the number +30 or above will have your whell tuck in while smaller offset +24 or below will have your wheel stick out.

So the higher the number the bigger the outer lip? What is a nice lip size for 10.5 R in GTC's ?

no, generally the lower offset you got, the more lip you got.
here's several main factors on how big of a lip you gonna get:
1)offsets, the lower offset you got, the bigger lip.
2)rim width, the wider rim you got the more lip you got.
it depends on wheel to wheel ofcourse, but gernerally the stuff above is the factors.
for example, a 18/9.5 +22 will have a bigger lip then 18/8.5 +22.
a 18/9.5 +22 will have a bigger lup than 18/9.5 +30.
hope this helped.
P.S. and the offset will also determine if your rim is flashed out or tucked in, lower offset will yield to flashed out appearence, vise versa.
