That’s aggressive when you intend to lower the rear 1.2 inches and unless you want it to rub on the bracket where the fender and rear bar meets, you‘ll need to run a skinny tyre with that combo with still the likelihood of rubbing when you have passengers. Wide rims and skinny tyres, what’s the point? For the sake of a less aggressive Offset, you can get more rubber on the road.

With a large selection of great looking wheels out there, I would find a wheel with more ideal offsets. This would be better than working at the limits. Get a wheel with a better offset and put on lots of rubber and get the best of everything....aggressive look and aggressive grip.
