okay i saw what you were talking about but im still a little confused and I dont want to give the wrong offset for my order. I'm using a set of 255 tires with 35mm sidewall on a 18 inch wheel. any suggestions for the offset

What offsets are the wheels you are looking at offered in?

+45 is a good offset for 9" wide rims.

Ya you're good to go.

Rock 255/35/18 all around for optimal balance.

thanks guys the wheels are offered in any offset. Im going to use 335/30/18 in the rear. huy suggested the +45 offset for the front wheels 18x9 with a 255/35/18 tire but he thought i should double check.

+45 will work. However, you'll have to determine how aggressive you want to go with the fitment. If you are looking for the "hella flush" look, you'll need something more aggressive than +45 in the front.

no i really want it to be able to turn really well without rubbing so thats not a big deal. i personally think stock looks good

Then a +45 will work just fine. Here's a hot of my car with 17x9 +43 with 255's:

If you are referring to my pic above, the front fenders are rolled but not the rear. It actually sits a tad lower normally. I had just taken the car off jack stands and washed it that day so it hadn't settle back down yet.
