I don't get it. You got a sponsor that OWNS a wheel shop and you need help with offsets?

I'm surprised that someone that does shows doesn't know a thing about how 20's look or any knowledge of fitments.

There are tons of us on this board that have 20's on the Gs'. Do some searching and you shall find.

why are you guys trying to rip on me? i just asked a question, i wasnt asking for anyone to ridicule me. And yes i have a fairly busy schedule lined up for the G, i used to have a acura TL before this which was in a lot of shows. Thats why im gettin a lot of sponsorships much easier this time because of people that i know. Im also on a a team with a few high profile cars, which def helps as well.


As far as pictures go....I said i dont have any updated pics becuase i have recently had a lot of work done. Ill be sure to post some pics after that. Once again, can anyone help me out to let me know what the offset should be??? i found pics in the sticky section, but no one had any offsets listed. Bare in mind my car is dropped.

Thanks for your time

That would pretty much sum up my thoughts exactly.

he owns a wheel company, but i didnt want to bother him by asking for his help while he is in the east coast, so i wanted to get it all figuered out, and then let him know what i wanted....anyways i got it taken care of now so dont worry about it

I am one that likes to help people out as much as I can. But your stories don't add up at all.

You can't even put up a pic of your car? any pic? which club do you belong to? as for the offsets, talk to your sponsor who knows about wheels (supposely), if he doesn't he's not a sponsor you like to have.

Lastly, if you spend some time reading through the wheel section you will find enless pics of cars with specs.
