What options have you narrowed it down to?

So I think I've decided on wheels after tons research and not try to break the bank too much.

I like the VS Forged VS01 20" in a Brushed Clear Finish. I was told I can get 20x9 +25 offset (fronts) 20x11 +35 offsets rears, running 255/30/20 & 305/25/20 tires. Most likely going with Michelin SS tires.

Does this setup sound right? Car will be lowered on KW H.A.S Coilover Spring Kit.

That is a nice choice and the specs sound good too, maybe someone else can chime in to confirm.

Good looking design, Aggressive offset and Deep concave wheels will look hot. Why brushed clear on a white car? Personally I am a fan of darker colours on white cars! I reckon it'll look awesome lowered. Post up some pics once you're done.

I have had numerous white vehicles with black and gun metal wheels.
Trust me, I love it the darker colors on white. Just wanting something different this time. Almost went bronze but just couldn't pull the trigger. 6-8 week waiting period so it will be some time before I post a pics. Meanwhile I'll have some fun rippping thru my current tires with 700+Hp
