What makes those look nice is the lip. Not sure how much lip you'll have with that offset though.
Got any pics?

^Well, my wheels aren't perfectly flush yet, and they're 19x8.5 +30 with 245/40
So to get the fronts to where mine are now, you'd need a 10mm spacer.... I'd think you'd want at least a 15.

My rears are the same, and just barely fit with no fender work.
Obviously, yours will be different because you're going with a staggered setup and a different sidewall height.

Just make sure and factor in the cost of spacers when deciding if it's a good deal or not.
I'm gonna step back and let the wheel fitment gurus take over now

I thought you just have to unplug the battery. This would be a no no with the battery connected right?

this isnt true... as long as you unplug the battery then unplug the tb actuator you can remove the tb and clean, moving the plate included.

I've done it many times - opening the plate as far as it goes cleaning both sides... no problem... many others have done this as well.

I don't remember how they're built right off hand, and I'm not at home so I can't check on mine... but can you remove the metal clip from your stock ones an put it on the clear corner?
