If you get the same offsets with different widths the wider rims will stick out of the car more.

If that is the look you are going for do it up.

I would run +32 and +20s to make them look the same but with different lip sizes.

You have RWD bask in it's big dish glory.

I do baby.

All my wheels have to have dish unless the design is something that is steller.

See that there:



Poking out from the rears. That is dish baby and it says hello from the front of the car.

People have pulled me over thinking my 16s are actually 18s because of the huge dish they have.

Now 1 inch of dish is the suck:



I only run those it is easier for me to go to events with a lot of tires already on wheels. q45 mesh are nice and all but they don't have a fighting chance against Enkeis.

I will keep my eyes opened. It seems the cat is out of the bag and some people think they can sell their meshies for a billion dollars.

I can understand some loot but a billion? Come on.

I can also understand that they might have been bagged on the purchase of the rims and now want to pass that loss onto the next buyer.

I still get them for good prices.

I just got two 15x8 -10 gold mesh in damn near perfect condition with tires (with 90% thread 195/60/15 falken ziex 512s) for $150 plus $25 shipping.

They are out there.

You just have to network and keep your lids pealled.
