How horrible will this look?
#21
risky business... yes those are the wheels. Motormouth, thanks for the info. 3hree5ive0ero.... thanks for the thread I can refer to. Ginobetterfly....no i'm not going to run spacers. For some reason i've always had something against spacers. If I'm going to buy a brand new set of wheels then i'm going to buy something that fits the way I want it to, to begin with. That's the reason why i've cancelled these. I like the overall style of the wheel, just not the offset. Thanks everyone for the help!

How much you looking to spend? Look in the private classified section. You can always find great deals there. Someone in the socal section is selling a set of gt-s or sf-challenges (I can't remember which) with tires for $2k. You'll be spending about the same if you buy a set of wheels for $7-800 and put $1k tires on.

Like everyone else said, cancel the order ASAP. The offset you ordered would look too tucked in, and it will not look right. In addition, the size 8.5 and 9.5 is too small. You would actually need 9.5 and 10.5, with +22 all around for the semi aggressive look. Good luck bro....

Ok, so I ordered a set of wheels that i'm thinking about sending back already. I just can't seem to picture these offsets to decide how they're going to look but it just doesn't seem right to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. They're 18x8.5 +35 front and 18x9.5 +35 rear. Doesn't seem right, anyone have any input?

dang... thats even worse than what I was thinking. Thank you Changvi for the detailed advice on sizes/offsets. Like I said before, i'm still trying to figure out the whole offset thing w/ different sizes and whatnot. Phantom Menace , thank you also for the detailed OEM info. That kinda gives me something to go off of. I appreciate the help from everyone. I really expected to get flamed a little more, but I guess that's just the diff in the forum community!

8.5 front and 9.5 rears are plenty aggressive - 275's still look pretty mean from the rear. FYI, +20 offset all around with camber kit in the rear forced me to have to roll my fenders. Now that I rolled my fenders though, I would have liked to have gone +15 all around.
But you can't go wrong with +20 for 8.5 and 9.5 - it's really common on here for people that don't go super aggressive.

I would kind of like to go either 18x9.5 all around or maybe an 18x9.5/18x10.5 staggered. At very least though 8.5/9.5. I know that's a wide range of options, but i'm still not 100% sure which way I want to go, or if it even matters to me or not.
