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?

you are joking right? you didn't actually buy them.


if this is FOR SERIOUS: yeah, send them back.

yeah this is serious as it gets man. I just realized what the offset was on them after I had already ordered them. I'm just glad I didnt pay in full up front. I really can't figure out what offset I need to go with?

they would work with some 20mm spacers i think. otherwise they will be really tucked in.

Those offset's are about as bad as stock. +1 on 20mm spacers or new wheels.

I really really really do not want to run spacers. So if I wanted to run 18x9.5 front and rear, what offsets would I want to sit as flush as possible without rolling my fenders?

+35 is gonna be hideous. what wheels are they?

ah... now that i've researched them I dont want them anyway. Havent found much good. They are Drifz wheels. time for a cancellation. I dont remember the name/model # of the wheels but they are 5 spoke black w/ polished lip.

I would cancel that order.

Make sure you write to Santa tonight and tell him you want new wheels in the high teens to low twenties offset wise.

Ps. Leave turbos around to attarct him to your palce.

if you want 9.5 all around go for a +2F0, +15R setup

If you want to figure out the offsets you need for a specific wheel that's different from the "norm" around here, just use this:

25mm spacers front and back and they would look fine.

wow... no research before buy = the fail

cancel the order and do some research for god's sake.. then buy.

p.s. i wouldnt do spacers, but then again i would never run those size wheels...

those wheels would be decent if the offsets were correct. Cancel the order. There are plenty of great wheels out there that dont have a $2000 price tag

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!
