OK, so I am a poor college student on a budgest so bear with me. I was thining about finally doing wheels n suspension for the spring and I know I want Stance GR+ Pro coilovers, and I was thinkin about wheels and I was thinking about Rota D2's, I know they aren't a great wheel but I like the look and they come in 4 lug, but the have a limited size availability in 4-lug

They make: 17 x7.5 +20, +25, +35

I was thinkin +20 rear and +25 front, how would these fit and what kinda lip would I be looking at ?

Pics on a S13 would be nice too if anyone has'em w/ specs.

IIRC, the lip is gonna look the same regardless of offset.

If 17x7.5+20 is the lowest offset and width, I'd just get that all around, instead of having a staggerd offset. Makes it a ton easier when you wanna rotate your tires.

whiterps13 has them in black. I dont remember his sizing tho.

That's weird on the site I see offering them, they show the only 4-lug size avail to be 17 x 7.5 +20,+25+35....Maybe they don't make the 8.5'' wide wheel anymore.

Whiterps...think I could get a shot or two of the lip of the wheel ?

I'm also trying to decide between gold and gunmetal.
