Around $250 each from VR.

is American Rim the same as that other place that sold the raw lips? if, so I calculated it and buying them there and having them polished would cost more.

That was the same place. How much is it to high polish wheels normally from a raw state?

My other question about those barrels is are they already pre-drilled for my wheels?

if not, then that's polishing and drilling on top of the cost of the actual barrel.

That is the size of the wheel on the back of my coupe now that the previous owner had put on. But he bent 3 of the 4 rims so I have to get new ones. I like the look of it now I'm just wondering what kind of room there is too play with and what others have put.

someone want to bless me some wheel knowledge?
Looking at a set of 18 Work VS XX 3 Piece wheels. The specs are:
Front
18x8.5 +35
Rear
18x10.5 +22

The front offset scares me for reason, is it possible to get that sitting right with spacers? Also is it possible to fit 305's on the rear?
