z1 sells them for 1400 too I think... so I really hope we get a nice GB price.

What do you think about the offsets? +20 or +30? or staggered? +20 means the wheels stick out further right? or does that mean they are tucked under the fender further? Which offset would allow for a 13" BBK?

Z1 said he can get +20 offest all the way around. I want the +20's but he also said the he has customers that are running +30 fronts and +20 rears that also look nice.
The set-up I want is 18x8.5 +20(front x2) & 18x9.5 +20(rear x2) both the +30 and +20 will accept the 13" BBK's.

If u guys are buying the work emotion...

go for +20 all around... u will love the concave look of the wheel for sure...

+30 offset won't give u any concavity... ur wheel will look plain flat...

Jason - one of the Silverstone Z that stand out... I always think that SS is a low-profile color...


Looks like most 18" rim don't have deep lip...

Sorry bout that... Yes I agree the SS look really good lowered.

Not so sure all 18" rims lack lip. Example being most everything volk makes. I think its more about the wheel designed than the size.

excellent choice
