If you're lookin' to get CE's or Le's, a +22 offset all around is a good bet. 99 grn (?) has this same set up and it looks great! Search it. Hope this helps.

Take care.

Did a search and saw a few setups +21 front +23 rear(all pictures garbled due to server software updates). However Isee a few different setups too on the same stock suspension. Is there no "optimum" offset?
Will the +21 front + 23 rear setup clear all Big brake kits and not stick out?
Also if i decide to get suspension mods in the future will the +21 +23 offset setup still work?

The lower your offset the better chance you have of clearing suspension. Those offsets should be fine for pretty much any suspension though, so dont worry. Also, your offset does not affect your brake clearance. That is all in the spoke/disk design.

Offset is a really touchy issue with a lot of people, and it really comes down to personal preference. When choosing what offset is best for you though, you need to consider the width of your wheels and your tire sizes as well.

the wider the wheel the more metal it will use, so you would expect the rim to be slightly heavier. Probably not really noticeably, but assuming you plan on using the same size rubber, you'll have less unsprung weight with the 8.5/9.5 setup.

I've decided the rims but don't really have an idea about the tires.
Volks CE28N Gunmetal
19x8.5 +21
19x9.5 +23
This setup won't look awkward would it?

My tire of choice is the Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 / Michelin sports PS2
What size tires would I need for the mentioned rims setup and respective tires?

thanks

sorry to bring up a dead post but do i need to roll the fenders for my g35c if I decide to get a CE28N 19"x9.5 19"x10.5 +22 offset all round?

also do the LE28Ns come in colors other than gloss black?
