the only bad thing about varrstoen is that their offsets are mildly aggresive, personally I dont mind but I understand no everyone is willing to do fender mods...

Pits best bet for you since you are looking for the 1.1.2's is goin with the +22 offset. You will need fenders mods though.

Dont have varrstoen setup but i know a few things about there wheels. You can run a 19x9.5+22 and 19x11+25 with stretch tires and they will stick out.

I am running 331's in 18x9.5 +22 F and 18x10.5 +22 R. They deff. have the look you are going for. Keep this in mind, you will need to cut tabs in the front, roll and pull fenders, and stretch tires. You may need camber arms in the rear as well. I am rubbing all they way around, I just shaved the tabs in the front today so we will see next time I drive. I need to get a 245 for the rear and I am going to poss buy camber arms as well. I rub where the rear quarter meets the bumper. I am in Megan. Ez's running at their stiffest setting. Here is a picture...

He is lowered more which in turn creats more negative camber pushing the top of the wheel inward. He may also have adjustable camber arms (poss. Figs lower control arm or megan for rear, sbc ball joint for front). He is also stretching much more than I am. I am currently running 225/40/18 and 255/40/18.
