that size offset is too high for a non-XI w/o running spacers.

its definitely possible to run them if you dont mind putting on spacers as well.

if you want an aggressive offset, w/o spacers id stick to the 15 to 20 offset range.

i have some 20" wheels with a 20 offset....here is a link to some pics so you can see how they sit (im not running spacers).


take a look in the private member section of the forum, there are a few sets of 20s for sale right now...some really good deals to be had....most of them with offsets that will fit your desired application.

Gizzler,

I already send a message for him and I didn't get the 21" wheels. Last saturday, I tried drive with the 4 wheels and they rubbing too much. To not rubbing will need put a different tire and they don't have a different size.

The tire was 21" 285/30 on rear and the front was 21" 245/35. In the front is necessary a 245/30 or 245/25 and this size 21", We don't have a lot option of tires.

This week, I bought a set of 20" M6 style wheels (Silver machined). The store located in the California and They will ship to me by Fedex.

It's hard to recommend wheels without a budget and a look you're going for. Personally, I like wheels with a nice deep lip, others prefer concave wheels. My suggestion: Contact member AcutePerformance (Michael), he's a great vendor and he can point you in the right direction to get wheels for your ride.
