Need help with rims+tires

These are the rims i am still deciding to get.

Something that has a dish lip like Rohanna RL-06(Matte Black)

Or Varrstoen 2.2.2 (Matte Black)

So please help me decide guys.
-I have a 06 OB coupe and its going to be dropped in MR Coilovers soon.

And also I am noob to wheels.. I have no idea what offsets are and what they do and how would they look like..

thanks

"THIS" meaning "YES"

And also, they're telling you to search. Go to the wheels section in the forum, tons of info there.

Those lines are where the wheel bolts to the hub. The lower (more negative) the offset the more "tucked" under a fender a wheel will be. The higher (more positive) the offset the further it will poke. Follow the links provided above and do a little research to see what you like.

19" Varrs +0 offsets will fit like this:


You could even add a little more low and more negative camber.

Also, These wheels will definitely require a fender roll. Most competent body shops can do this in about 30 mins or less.

So for those rims you gotta get a body shop to do a fender roll which means redo the fenders and make it wider?

Right, especially once you get your coils installed. Only the rear fenders will need a roll, the fronts are factory rolled.
