Looks really nice. Wheels remind me of Lexani's. What offset and tire sizes did you use? Any rubbing issues?

there appears to be some poke w/ those wheels...what's the offset? and do you have a rear shot looking forward to see how much the wheels protrudes? Do you plan on lowering it?

I like the staggered look.

I would lower her like 1.5" though.

What size rubber on the rear? Looks like you have 245's back there or something from the stretch that I see.

Front is 245/35/20 with an offset of 38. Rear is 275/30/20 with an offset of 42. I tried with two adults in the back and two in the front and I have no rubbing at all. Of course I didn't lower my car yet.
