Ok so after having that shitty 225 setup for weeks I got these wheels. They drive so much better, completely a different car not only in looks. The guy had advertised that they were all 245's.. But when I got to his house, the rear ones were 275's. Just made the deal even sweeter.

Gunmetal Motegi Touge Racing

Front
245/40/18
18"x 9"

Rear
275/40/18
18"x 10"

Offset: 30mm.. Yes I know that most of you prefer a lower offset, but I think they look good.

 

So, what did you do right? I don't think its the offset.

 

I personally like the wheels to be tucked just a bit. The offset is the same as stock.

 

lol dude.. this is the internet.. not everyone will agree with what you think..

imo i dont think the offset is good too.. but then again, its your car

 

I think that actually lot better than before...

 

You did it right.

 

Offset = WRONG
Wheels = C

Overall grade = C

 

Technically the offset is right.

 

Whatever makes you sleep at night.

 

I don't know if will help me sleep at night. However I do know that the stock wheels have a 30mm offset.

 

The stock wheels have a positive offset, hence they're flush. For a wheel with a nice lip, the offset should be 'less' than stock.

I have 18x9 and 18x10 wheels with the offsets around +24 or +23.

It's your car and your wheels. I don't think +30 is going to kill the car or anything. It's a matter of looks and taste, and if you like it then that's all that matters.

 

i'd agree on being it better than before..

keep saving for a better look.

 

20mm spacers and drop the car a bit will look really nice. You car looks clean just a little weak looking at the moment. To each his own though. Bet youre happy so thats all that matters

 

Well, not really. You need at least a +22 with your setup, and a nice drop. Then you are all set....

 

So that would mean a 8mm spacer? Or higher?

 

If front and rears are +30, then yes, 10mm spacers would do the trick.

 

Is it really worth possibly damaging a stud for a silly 10mm spacer?

That's like this much

With a good 10mm spacer you will get new studs www.ichibausa.com . Your wheels actually have the proper offset, most people have no clue what their talking about, but most of us do go a bit more aggressive than +30 just for looks.

10mm or 15mm spacer will make them more look better to most of us.

 

for some odd reason the rear wheels look small

looks nice tho

 

You finally did what, FAILED?
