Just give us the specs of the wheels, theres no need to do the math. What are you comparing these to?

I voted the lowest offset out of the three.

No idea what we're comparing here, but like Ryan, I voted for the lowest offset.

How can these new wheels be 30mm wider than your old ones? Unless youre accounting for a fat tire, cause an inch is only 25.4 mm...

17x10 +12 ftw. Make it fit.

Im running 17x9.5 +10 with about -3.0 deg. of camber and its super hot.

Im assuming were talking about the rear here, right?

Broadfield is running a 275 on a 10" on his s13, contact him to see what offset hes running. Also, Roger Hinga has 10's out back...
