Wow, I'm not even on the market for rims, but those are slick. Great price too.

Check out clmulli's pics, I spoke to him and he's using a +35 offset, very agressive stance

I'm running a offset of 35 and yes the rear isn't that flush. The front is ok. So if you wanted a flush look, go with a higher offset. I think the offset the factory wheels are 43(front) 45(rear).

You can always run spacers to adjust the offset and stance of the car to make it look more flush. I am running with 43 offset front and rear and use 10mm spacers on front and rear and the stance is great.

Its actually the other way around. You want a lower offset to push the wheels out further.

Umm... actually he was correct... the rear wheels on his car appear ever slightly more than flush, so the higher offset will pull the rear wheel in

By not being flush I assumed he meant the wheels were too sunken in.

To be perfectly honest, I've always got to stop and think about it for a second myself.
