@laopadak- I really wanted the face 3 (more concave) look when I bought my G25s, but it wasn't available in the finish I wanted. The only problem I foresee is the +30 in the rear. That's mildly aggressive, and there will be some extra work just to make it fit. Best of luck!

Thanks bnizzle. Still trying to learn the different off-sets and what it'll do for the stance. I understand the basic +/- offset but then when you throw in the extra width of new wheels compared to stock, I don't know how far out the wheel will stick out.

Currently running stock wheels with 15mm spacers in front, 20mm spacers in rear. Stock offset is +45 F (19X8) and +55 R (19X9). With the spacers I'm at +30 F and +35 R.

With this set-up (Volks in link), I'd remove the spacers but what extra work will be needed? Fender rolling? Will the wheels stick out too far?

Thanks.

I would be inclined to think fender rolling will be necessary. It also depends what tire size you want to run and how low low you wish to go if you have coilovers. I'm at 9.5 +45 in the rears, and they're pretty flush with the fender, but I had my fenders rolled and slightly pulled to accommodate my tire size. With the 19x10.5 +30, the outer rim will poke out 44mm more, which equates to 1.73 inches. This is where you'll run into the most trouble. If you like the wheel, I'd opt to find one in a higher offset, or else you might have to run a lot of camber, which may or may not be your intent with the vehicle. Personally, I'm not a big fan of cambered rides, especially the F, but this will have to be solely your decision.

If you do get these wheels, you'll really like the design and finish. Top notch lightweight forged wheels indeed. Best of luck!

Thanks bnizzle. The volks are a clearance special through Ravspec so I was hopeful. I understand what you're saying and will keep on searching for right set at the right price.

Thanks for your input!
