^^^This Guy. Like he explained 1000x, Sevas only has the +40 offset in this model. They do not produce any further offsets and as you can see, it fits perfectly fine. You really need to read the last 3 pages before you post.

Wait a sec.... Hikos_G front tires were 20x8.5 with +35 offset and Marcel's rims are the same size but offset is +38 so why does it look like marcel's rims stick out more when they should be inside more because of the increased 38 offset? I called Sevas wheels direct and they said they can shave 8 mm off the 20x10 rear wheels from thier factory direct, than will it fit? I am confused and I need to order rims from DPE soon. Help!!!

Eric

unless they told you the wrong offset(they lied to u) or unless the '07 has a deeper wheel well and thats why a 40 offset looks different on a '03-'06 compared to an '07.

Maybe he should get a different brand wheel!

This is the offsets available on the Sevas S7 from their site:
20 x 8.5 38 MM
20 X 8.5 25 MM
20 x 10 40 MM
20 x 10 25 MM

once he lowers the car the wheels will tuck in more and it will look how it's supposed to look, flush with the fenders. He doesnt need to order new wheels, those are the only offsets Sevas wheels come in for sedan fitments.

10" rear rim with 40+ offset sticks out the same amount as 9.5" rear rim with with 34+ offset. In other words, an offset that works good on a 9.5" rim may not work at all on a 10" rim.

I think Hiko is running 9.5" on the rear with a 43+ offset.

This is equivalent on the outside to a 10" on the rear with a 49+ offset. In otherwords, the outside of a 10" with a 49+ offset would come out the same distance as Hiko's but the inside would be in 12mm more than Hiko's.

I realize that, i know my offsets as you can tell with the wheels i have now and the wheels i'm getting next week. All i am saying is that the sevas wheels WILL fit, he doesnt need to buy new wheels, after he lowers the car they will tuck in and look good.

Just like on your car, you didnt HAVE to switch to a +48 offset in the rear, you could have stuck with what you had and when you lowered the car, it would have been perfectly flush with the fenders.

We will see soon enough. My springs were shipped 2 days ago and should be here in a day or two.

Definitely post up some pics as soon as the springs settle, cant wait to see those Challenges on a lowered 07, should look 10x better than it already does now.

IMO, this is still a bad idea. Bringing the camber back into spec will cause rubbing (unless of course he wants to keep buying $300 tires)

If this mfr does not have the appropriate offsets, use another. At 20", there is little difference in the cost of stock wheels vs. custom wheels / offsets.

This also what I'm tryin to point out...do they even make camber and toe kits for this vehicle yet? All I'm sayin is that you better save money for tires cause you will be spending ALOT.

I am thoroughly confused at this point... EVERY dealer, wheel maker, etc etc etc keeps telling me that a 20x10 with 40mm offset will fit on our cars and not stick outside the fender well.

Does anyone other than MarcelKatz have 20x10s on the rear? Is it possible that maybe they gave him 25mm offsets making them stick out so far?? This sucks, the wheels I want are 2 months out in 19s, but in stock in the 20s. Everyone says they will fit, but the pics or Marcel's car say otherwise...
