Ahhhhhhhh 11r's

I was going to buy his wheels in the winter but decided GS finish would look better with the color of the car.

Still only 2 of us with this wheel at this point -- on this forum anyway

Steve you should touch up your calipers and rotor hats. that would really help with the overall appeal of the wheel

Depends on tire size, how low your car is, and camber. +30 all around or +38 all around are both doable

what color is your 8? white im assuming
White is right.. and honesty steve I was soo excited today.. then guess what... just now Ross Dawg in my other thread pointed out the worst/best news ever.. look at my picture I posted...

I ordered (4) 18x9.5 and 2 of the 4 were 18x8.5 so tommorrow I've gotta deal with a bunch of b.s. all day trying to ship them back and what not. NOT COOL WORK. NOT COOL AT ALL. lol.

I didn't even notice the mess up and probably wouldnt have till I had them ready to mount.. so im kinda happy.

and not to mention my cars been on blocks for a week and now will be even longer. hence why I'm now in a cruddy mood.

speaking orders getting screwed up, what are some good work wheels dealers that will work with me and put together a well priced wheel/tire combo any suggestions would be awesome

edit: I checked the dealers list there aren't really any around me that are well priced so if they are well priced and have good service/a good rep i'd love to know thanks

As stated +30 and +30 are both doable.

+38 is what im running and they flush the +30 will be 8mm wider making a more aggressive stance. Depending how low and the profile tire you run the car might need a roll in the rear. But remember this, wheels that are 9.5 wide will have the same concaved look with both the +30 and +38 offsets. Work measures their offsets from the back spacing on the wheel hub. the only time the concave will look less deep is with the 8.5 and smaller diameter wheels.

Take a look at the pics I've post a page or two back in this thread and you will see that the +38 looks just fine
