I'm in the market for a set of wheels in this range and I like the simple styling and offset... I think they would complement my Vizage type A kit nicely too.. Weird thing is is that they don't list the manufacturer?

Ebay Link

I think you could find a used set of wheels that are much better here for close to that price. Those offsets are not good.

Anyone have a link to an offset calculator of something that will steer me in the right direction? I still have no idea of the relationship between offset and lip size, ect...

Normally you will want an offset of around +22 or below

They look like they belong on a lexus or an audi.

But it's your call, if you like them, go for it.

get wheels that are 8.5"-9.5" wide in front and 9.5"-10.5" in rear...offsets should be about +15 to +30, respectively...they just need to be flush with the fender, or it'll look bad
