You're not the only one that didn't notice. Nobody notices when they see them in person. They all focus on the 11s out back. For the price,you won't find any better looking wheels. The pics make the offset look worse than it actually is.

I'd liek to have them, and I didnt notice the offset at first. But with my sportlines. my front fenders would rub the hell out of those tires. So yes. There are draw backs with that offset.

On a non-lowered car, there are no problems. I've only rubbed once and I had a 200+ lb passenger in the back seat and was running 60 down a back road and hit a big bump.

You think I could get polished centercaps from Fikse that would pop right in?

Maybe,again you'd need to call Fikse to make sure.I don't want to tell you wrong because I don't know a lot about wheels. Personally I'd keep the centercaps on it though.

Yes. There customer service is great. I forget the cost, but I had them send me a set a few years back.
