All I asked for was more about a good offset to pick and less about which look (at least from my post yesterday and posts today as it’s been a few months since this thread was lasted posted in - I have a look in mind and don’t need help picking out style of wheel) and judging by the posts on other forums, it is NOT +20 (why the hell would someone recommend +20 when those pics above are all OVER 40 and they are almost all flush). I don’t know why you people are so enamored with tires sticking out 5 inches, but that is not my style. I am NOT going VIP or slamming the car or any of that other stuff. I just want a nice flush looking (doesn’t even have to be exactly flush) setup and that’s it. When I asked for final thoughts and if it looked good, I was referring to the ‘flushness’ and fitment of those wheels posted in this mornings post, not the actual wheels themselves. Evidently that is too much to ask and I suck at this. So be it. Have a good day sir(s). I’m talking to Audi\_Jay and the rest of you can go screw yourselves. ---

It’s getting ridiculous. I have 50 opinions flying at me, none of which make any sense and no one can offer me any concrete reason to go +20 when I see ACTUAL/TANGIBLE pictures of cars running +40 that look FINE. Why the HELL would I want my wheels sticking out 2". So I can curb them or damage them?
