+30 in the front
+35 in the rear

that would fit and clear just fine.

I say go with the Design E. Get them flush with the appropriate offset, leave the lip chrome, and paint the centers gunmetal or something equally as sinister!

I think design T is nicer out of the two.

wow.
he's asking for advice on size/offset
"flush" doesnt really help him at all. especially with some people's defenition of flush these days.
and who would paint brand new relativley expensive wheels?
great advice.
:p

Type E's have been a favorite of mine for a long time (3 years ago) and to this day I still think they're one of the most classy, stylish, and also aggressive wheels out there.

Now only if they were lightweight and came in more sizes...

those are HORRIBLE offsets for his wheels..they will be SUNK like a mofo..

if you want somethin nice go with the +17, +13 combo...run some camber, stretch the tire a tad, and call it day..

I like design T.
But, E is nice also.

And yes, go low offset.
S14's have way too much room for wheel.
Not that there is anything wrong with that.:D

Humm so how much is it per wheel, it looks like if the wheels was 185 euro (the 16x9 15 offset) 226.77$ and then they would need to be shipped right, thats alot for those wheels.. Very very nice, but seems like alot
