Konig Illusion

I'm looking to purchase a pair of Konig Illusions with the ble accents, but I'm not really sure about the offset. The 18x8's here:

http://www.amazon.com/Konig-Illusion.../dp/B003M8HB8Q

have a +45mm offset, and I was wondering if anyone had any opinions about this? I really like the slammed look and was going to put 275/30 tires on them with the Sprint lowering springs which have a 2 inch drop. Does anyone know whether or not this will work and whether or not the tires will rub? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

275mm tire on a 8" wide rim is going effect your handling horribly and dangerous. Don't do it
245mm is the most you should go on a 8" wide rim PERIOD

+45 is only going to give you a look comparable to stock. Do you really want to spend money on a stock offset (+50)????

I think you need to do a little more research on what works and what is problematic
