wheel offset

ok, I read the sticky on the wheel offset, I kind of understood it.

but I have a question about offset and a set of wheels.

I will be doing the 5 lug rotor swap, in the short future, in about 4 months.

I will also be getting front fenders that is 20mm over, and the rear quater panels will be 30mm over, I will get these in about 3 months.

Anyways.

I will be getting the 5zigen fn01r-c hyperblack wheels.

The fronts will be 17x9" , and the rears will be 17x10" (yeah, I like fat wheels!!!)

I was looking the wheels on a website, and noticed, that even though I read about the offset sticky, that I am stupid and can not figure out what offset I will need, so that the wheels are not setting inside the fender well or out to far.

Ok now the real question, with the over fenders I am getting, will a +35 be ok for the front and rear wheels?

oh, I have the car lowered at around 2"-2.5" on front and rear.

to help out on this here is the website I was looking at. I will not be getting the wheels from here though!

Front Wheels

Rear Wheels

ok, cool

I won't run a spacer, unless I absolute need them.

I know everyone has these wheels, but I can't seem to find anything else that I like!

I'll be going with either hyperblack, or bronze color.

I'm getting my car painted white, with a clear coat.

Thanks for the replies, guys!

I was being serious, I had more written which made the "lol" somewhat relevant, but I erased it and never took that off the end.

What you ment to say is you can't find anything else you like for this cheap. 5 lug has 100000x wheel options.

dont get me wrong, they are badace wheels and come in great sizes, but now that there are like 10 more 240's to every city in the u.s, id rather get something a little more unique...i duno i still havent bought wheels yet, but when i do, theyll definately be different..just my opinion..
