Buying wheels need help with offset
I'm trying to buy these wheels they offer them in 4x110 but only in a 15x7+10 and a 15x8 +0 offset.. Will 15x8 +0 work for the back I'm a noob at wheel sizes need help.. I just don't want my wheels sticking out I want them to be perfectly flushed but as much lip as possible

I think it's Offset = Backspace minus (1/2 wheel Width)
O=B-(W/2)
When offset is positive, backspace is larger than the distance from the tire mounting lip to the centerline of the wheel, which is 1/2 the spec width.
When negative, backspace is less than half the spec width.
Seems right, anyway. No guarantee as I'm going from recent experience only.
The factory waffle rim is a 13x5.5, +25mm offset.
My new 7x15's are +10mm offset. They poke some in the front & are just about flush with the outer rear fender line.

15x7 +10 is perfect for front and rear, it will give you about 1/2 inch of clearance under full suspension travel. 15x8 +0 may stick out a 1/2 inch or so... but with the proper suspension setup tuck nicely with the right tire and give adequate clearance under full suspension travel .

In the video, that yellow car's performance can back up those rims. If you likve in Elgin Il, how can you get rims from australia.
