18x8 all around +35 offset ok?
Saw these and really like 'em. Question is, will they fit okay? I have an auto touring with the 17s. Was looking for stock 18s until I saw these. Anyone feelin' these?
Anyone heard of Forte? They any good? Also, the label on the box shows C.B. as 73mm, what the heck is that?

CB is centerbore... I think the Z CB is around 67. You will just have to use the rings that come with the wheels(usually). The only thing is I don't think a 35mm will look good on the car. I just put on 8" wide in the front and 9" on the back with a 25mm offset and they still stick in a little, so just imagine over 10mm more... And I had the 17's. I would try to find a wheel with a 30 or less offset...

That's odd, because when I was looking at discount tire, ALL the 18x8 wheels have an offset of 35 or higher. What is the offset of the stock wheels, both 17 and 18?

The wheels you have are 17x7.5 +30 offset front, and 17x8 +33 offset rear. You can use the offset calculator near the top of the wheels & tires forum to see how a set of aftermarket wheels will compare.
And yeah, it's had to find wheels with the correct offsets - less than 35.
