17x8+25 up front and 17x9+35 on the back for new wheels.This will also work for 16" rims. This setup will not be possible for u to rotate your tires.

what would the offset be if you have 20 mm wide fender flares on the front and 30 mm wide fender flares on the rear?

dont quote on this, i don't know anybody with wide body kits so i do not know but i think people run deep dish rims for it like from veilside(andrews rims). Offset doesnt really means it move the spoke inside and make the lips of the wheels wide.

I'm running 17x7 +35 front and 17x8 +35 rear and it's perfect in my opinion. That's with big-*** tires (225/45/17 front, 245/45/17 rear) and no ridiculous camber/rolling fenders/pulling fenders necessary.

Yay for streetability and not killing tires every 4 months...realistic amounts of camber rock!!

Does anybody know where to get 17 inch wheels with a different than stock offset ? I just installed coilovers and now I have a problem with clearance. I am using a 1/4 inch spacer currently but it is causing one hell of a wheel vibration at 65 and I still really dont have enough clearance. I have tried the local wheel store with no avail.
