You want to be in the low +20's at least for offsets...

agree^^ between +18 and 23+ is a good number for the offests to be.

People will take up to +30 though.

A higher offset will mean the wheel will sit further in, in your wheel well. A lower offset will bring the wheel out of the wheel well and make it look more aggressive and will look better.

With those widths, an ideal offset would be +11 to +20 for the front wheels, and +17 to +24 for the rear wheels.

I have these exact wheels with these specs and they fit very flush to the fender of the Z:
front 8.5" offset = +11
rear 9.5" offset = +17

the back is 39 i think and the front one were mid 30's. Hes asking 2200 for them but i would need to replace the front 2 tires. I think the prices are a little bit steep or am i wrong? the rims look like they have alot of wear and tear on them plus very minor scratches on all 4.
