holy gezz! you guys are running crazy offsets and major camber to run that close to the fender! With the pot holes we got here in vancouver, i aint got the ***** to run anything that crazy!

20x8.5 +35 245/30/20 1 degree camber
20x10 +43 w/ a 15mm spacer 275/30/20 2 degree camber

i didnt go with a stretched set up, but respect those that can manage to live with it =)

Im curious guys, a lot of you stuck with 19in, is there a reason, well besides the fact that you have a lot more side wall to be able to stretch.

Yes Indeed, I used to be pretty big in the VW scene on the west coast and have know kippen for a long time. He was always upset he never got to shoot my GS.

im new to this, what is offset anyways. What is the reason for it. I see some with not so agressive offsets and they look the same to me as ones with it.
