Konig Rewind, which offset to ensure they aren't FWD style

I have seen multiple pictures of the Konig Rewind wheels that show with a wide lip & a front wheel drive looking wheel with very little dish. I have seen pictures on Auctions with the same descriptions but diffrent style. I am looking at 15x7 with +20 offset. Would these with +20 have that FWD look?

See Post #4 on this thread for the front wheel drive style I am talking about I am wanting to stay away from.

Yeah those pics above are the 15x7 with a 20 offset, which is what fits under the stock fenders on an FB - it's not going to have that super deep lip that we all want. You'd need the 0 offset version for that, but then you really need flares (not a bad thing really lol)

Heres a far away shot of mine with 15x7 0 offset and flares. I'll have to upload a better pic

<br /><br />do they offer the 0 offset in the 4x110 or did you have to adapt to a 100 or 114.3?

Check out rota wheels. They have wheels that look just like the rewinds. Looks like they're available in 4x110 with a +4 offset. Pretty close to 0
