Wheel Help - NOT an offset question
Ok, well i have come to the fact that i need new wheels.
i know what im looking for but everytime i see wheels online, they dont look right.
im looking for wheels for my 240 of course, but im looking for that deep dish look. a +38 offset for a 17x9. i want them flush and want them to be white.
i am having trouble finding some so i thought you could help me out some.
price is some what of a factor, i dont want to spend a butt load of $ on wheels.
if you can help me find some that would be cool
Thanks
Jay

I thought this wasn't an offset question. LOL! A 17 x 9 +38 will not have a deep dish. I would run something like 17 x 9 +5 in the rear and 17 x 9 +15 in the front. Should fit good with a fender roll. As for white wheels, they are not very common. Consider a different colour or buy the wheels you like and get them powder coated.

+38 would just have them far out enough not to rub shocks, you would have some room between the fender most def. i would go ***** out and get 17x9 +10 to negative 10 or so and pull and roll all fenders, but thats just me. why not just go wider ie 10" front and rear pulled and rolled

well. i have just been shopping around and i cant find anything that looks right. they always look good on other peoples cars but when i see them online they just dont look right at all...
17x9 with +5 isnt a common size

If you'll consider a nice 18" wheel check out rota journeys. They come in 18" x 9" and 0/5/15 offsets. If you don't like the colour get them powdercoated. I am not sure if they can do any sort of masking when powder coating(I'm thinking not) so you could get them in polished and then prep/prime/paint the spokes white yourself.
Good luck!
