They look fine 
As long as they function well, I think the offset is just for visual reference.

Not sure what brand of spacers you got, but make sure they are hubcentric. Also another thing to put into consideration is the wheel chamfer compared to the spacers.
Since you are running aftermarket wheels, the chamfer from the spacer may match OEM wheels, which are larger, while your aftermarkets have a smaller chamfer, thus not sitting completely flat onto the spacer and creating vibrations.
Hope this helps.

You know, bystanders will never notice what cap is on your wheels ... except the owner himself/herself.
Cheers to the continuous mod! ha ha

I can't afford the body kit, plus I think the kit won't mate with my car's body color.
The color of my car is called "Platnium Bronze"
