Default Questioning with offsets

I know alot about In Car entertainment and audio equipment but when coming to offsets and so forth im still on the learning side.

I am interested in purchasing a Set of Meister S1s in a 18x8.5 +35 18x9.5 +37.What I am wanting to know how crappy of a offset is that for a NON brembo Z car?I have the Tein S tech drop ready to install to go with these.I know spacers will cure alot of issues but would like to get some feedback from knowledgable members!

THANKS!

With 20mm spacer it will be fine, and i wouldn't put anything less than a 9 inch wheel up front.

Both the offsets and widths suck. Go with a 9.5/10.5 setup with low 20 offsets.

I had the same question a few weeks ago. You're gonna want a 9.5 up front and a 10.5 in the rear. +22 offset would be ideal.

Research and find out what the rims retail at brand new and then decide if you're getting a steal or not. If you are getting a really good deal on them I'd say go for it. You can always add spacers.
