question on low offset wheels?

[chmercer]

i am curious about wheels with very low or possibly negative offset. Is there any point to this aside from bling factor? and is the only problem with using a wheel like this that you would most likley need fender flares to make your car not look goofy? or are there any negatives to this?

while im posting, does anyone know where i can get these wheels? http://www.enkei.com/HPSpecPAGES/NTO3+MSpecs.htmland does anyone know anything about the Falken nurburgring r34? im trying to find the wheels that were on it, thats the closest thing i can find, im pretty sure the wheels are enkei but it dosent say they come in white, like they are on the skyline. also if anyone knows, what wheel size are they? looks like 18-19?

No, there is no practical-real-world-daily-driven need for wheels with negative offset, for your application. For show purposes, IMO.

Those offsets are horrible on those wheels... spacer city.

They are Enkei...size is 18x11"

nismo freak, do you mean the offset on the 18x11 wheels that were on the skyline would be spacer city? i wasnt interested in trying to mount the EXACT same wheel on my car, i just like the spoke design.

and smith, you say for my application? how about for racing applications? i was more curious about that.

That Skyline is going to have a one-of made wheel set designed specifically for that car... I can't find anything other than the 18x9.5 +27 that would fit the Skyline well. Even then you want something towards a +22 offset.
