its going to look the same.
Well i guess since the look of the wheel i want doesnt depend on the offset. I just want to make sure i get everything right before i get the wheels. Basically:

18x9.5 +35 - 255/35/18 > Bridgestone Potenza RE01-r
18x9.5 +45 - 275/35/18 >

The car will be dropped on Tein S-Techs, or an eibach pro-kit (i work at a rim/tire shop and i can get the rims/tires/ eibachs at cost.), the rims will be bronze n my fd is black

I know ill have to roll my fenders, but it really shouldnt take much more work than that should it?

I dont see why you should have a problem fitting that set up on your car.

I think they said 2lbs more than the FNOR-1C in the same size.
