Does anyone have picts of 18" x 8.5 wheels and what offset. I'm trying to decide on what offset to look for. Picts if you could.... Oh, 95 240 SE

8.5 you can fit in the front and 9.5 for the rear. offsets should be between +30~+35.  I suggest you go wider in the rear.

What's the drop on that 240? It looks really good, but something just looks off, maybe the drop, or maybe there 45 tires?
