Does this setup sound good?

Just wanting to get some opinions before I pull the trigger. I have a stock 04 IP coupe with tinted windows. I'm going to upgrade from the stock 17 inch wheels and original tires to these

TSW Mondello: http://www.discounttiredirect.com/pr...wmon.hb.xl.jpg

18x8 front, 18x9 back with 225's in the front and 245's in the rear. My only real concern is the offset which is +20. It will fit no problem, but I dont' want the wheels/tires to stick out too much. Thoughts?

Why not go up to at least a 19x8.5 and a 19x10 or 10.5 with a +23 to +25 offset you shouldn't have to much tire sticking out.

A wider wheel with that offset would require a wider tire (275) which would stick out even further.

I'm sticking to 18 inch wheels primarily because I have to run all-season tires year round. I can get this same wheel with a 35+ offset in the rear, but I dunno about that......

Well, I found these pics of the same wheels in the same offsets, only with wider wheels and tires meaning mine would stick out slightly less. I think it looks good....

But I'm going with hyperblack rather than chrome on IP.
