Question for those with DPE or other custom wheels.

I'm looking into picking up a set of DPE wheels for my C32. Since they don't have half sizes, I think I should get 19x8 fronts and 19x10 rears.

I want to have the wheel clear the brakes and be as far out to the fender as possible with very minimal to no rubbing. I'm currently lowered on H&R coilovers. From experience, what offsets should I be looking into?

If you have DPE wheels, if possible, can you post a picture? Im also trying to decide on a style right now.

Thanks.

leave the offset to DPE people... you dont need to know. just tell them your spec, and they should know what to do.

Ok cool. I'll probably be doing that. I'll talk to them after I decide on a style. I'm sure they've worked with a lot of W203s.
