there are some members on here that have these wheels on there car already. I thought VQmotoring was the only company that was selling these? This is a really good deal and I might have to jump on this. I believe the off sets for these wheels is 35 from what i can find searching around. Hope this helps....

HPO=high positive offset
MED= medium offset

Those are nice looking wheels but the tires are too narrow. Go with 245 front and 275 rear and those will look sweet.

yeah i know that's what i want to go for but this guy is selling as a package. I'm waiting on a reply to see if he will just sell the wheels. there are others selling the same wheels but 19" and this guy is the only one i have found with 18" and staggered

Well they would look sweet. Get them and try to sell the tires to help fund a new set. Either way definitely throw some pics up when ya get them on!
