Those are my options. I wish there was something in the middle but there's not.
Which would you choose?

Depends on what width you plan on running. We need more info.

If this is for a Coupe your wheels will be really tucked in. I suggest you find other options. You need to atleast get down to the upper 20's offset wise for it to give a good apperance. If this is for a Sedan...well that's different.

My apologies for shortness of details. I think I will be running 235 or 245's. I am going to be dropping it shortly. I was all teed up for h-tech because of the camber issue but I kept seeing photos of cars with their butt waaaaaay higher than their nose. I'd like something a little more level so I think I'll probably throw a pro-kit in.
BTW this is for the X in my sig. Thank you for any comments.

Sorry Cru. My only excuse is that I have a 6 month pregnant wife and a 2 yr old. No sleep whatsoever.

It's 8.5" Thanks again.

Go with +35 all around. You'll be just fine and a nice flush look.

No problem and congrats on the bun in the oven. +35 is right at the fender lip. +45 is tucked in a bit. You should be OK with the +35 as Chico said, but both will fit.

GEE35X - Since we're driving virtually identical vehicles I have to wonder ever thought of a drop? I'm hoping this new look fills the wheelwells a bit but I am prepared to go there.
