Wheel options... which one?





Which one should i get??? The two top are staggered at 8 and 9.5 with a +20 offset. The other is staggered at 7.5 and 9.5 but i cant find the offset on them. Oh well. Thoughts??

None. They'll all fit terribly, even on a stock height G.

Look for atleast 8.5/9.5 widths with offsets in the teens.

Im not looking to stick out or stretch tires... I want them right at flush or tucked just a tad. Plus there are always spacers to flush them out a little better. And im not looking to go any larger than 18's

With those offsets they wont even be close to flush. Those wouldnt even be flush on my sedan.

If I were you, i'd get the 9.5" all around with a 255/40/18. Unless you want the staggered look.

The benefit to having all the same size wheels and tires would obviously be the ability to rotate your tires and increase the life in return.

with that said, i'd go with option 1 because it looks like factory wheels with the split 5-spoke.

It depends on if you're going to stay at stock height or if you're going to lower the car at all.

If you HAD to choose one of those, either #1 or #3. If you like mesh style, #3, if you like 5-spoke, #1.

Keep looking. They would just not look right. Look into MRR as they are cheaper then TSW. For the price of TSW you can get something really really nice.

Spacers are around $130/pair so take that extra $260 and put it into wheels that fit you car correctly.

I thought/read (here) that the staggered wheels were for a purpose..... it's more for functionality than looks?
