I know what your saying, his specs are not as wild and crazy as some others I've seen as well. Dennis and talked no less that 5 times regarding his fitment. He didn't want a "off the shelf" normal fitment, but also he didn't want to run narrow 215 or 235 tires. He wanted an aggressive fitment with mild fender roll, steam roller tires an a nice lip.

I think its a good compromise of aggression, tire width and also NYC driven durability!

The offsets +35, +47 seems like its conserverative but when you calculate it into a width of 9 and a 11 respectively its a whole different ball game...
How agressive is your drop? What are your alignment specifications? I can see where my opinion on agressive fitments differ, as most of the cars I work with have agressive alignments and are pretty low. With a near stock alignment, and a not body kit killing drop, well. You just said the result lol.

He already listed the offsets and I think the wheels would look alot smaller in 19 with a lower drop.
