Guys, I've been looking into getting a set of 20" Axis Shine wheels. They come in the following spec

20x9 Front Offset 15

20x10 Rear Offset 20

I just picked up my 04 coupe a month ago so I'm still reading and learning on recommended wheel offsets and what not. Anyone running these with brembo brakes without any issues? Also what wheel size would be best on stock suspension? Keep in mind I live in MI. Roads aren't always the best. Lastly, would I need spacers to fill in the well or will I be ok with the offset stated? Thanks for any help in advance and sorry for any ignorance in my post

I am on BC Coilovers and SPC rear camber arms and my car is an awd sedan.

I plan on rolling rear fender soon.

I have been looking into wheels and was thinking about getting a square setup of Varrstoens ES1 19x9.5 +22 or 19x9.5 +12.

Which Offsets would be better? Looking to be pretty flush.

Also which tire size would be best to run?

Thanks this gives me an idea of what kind of offsets I should run.

I was thinking about doing a slight stretch with 225 tires all around.

I found some Meisters 3 piece wheels with the specs I want but with gold faces. What are my options since I can't find any anywhere else. Is there anyway I could just buy a silver face from somewhere and swap them out? Or would I have to have them sanded and then pc'd silver I'd hate to take off that fresh gold paint.

powdercoating can be as cheap as 40 per wheel or more than 100 per. depends on quality, the place doing it, etc.
