    I searched and can't find the minimum offset for the rear wheels. What I'm finding is about lowered rides going flush. I've read that 8" wide, 30mm offset may fit the front and not rub depending on tire.

    I'd like to run a 7.5" front and 8" rear. American Racing PN#'s ~ AR605M77591C (front), AR605M7866C (rear). These are Torque Thrust m's if that helps for a visual.

    1/2" isn't a huge amount of added dish on the rear. I'm thinking they'll give a unique look. Has anyone run +30mm offset on the back? I don't think 8" will hit the strut on backspacing. Thanks.

    I wouldn't run a staggered set on a fwd car. I've also ran a 30mm in the rear with no problem but I did eventually roll my fenders just in case, some guys will rub some wont just be prepared to roll the fenders if needed and don't be scared about doing it, there's plenty of information on how to do it.. Take your time and heating the paint helps the paint not crack

    Thanks man. I realize staggered isn't ideal for both performance and cost, are there other reasons I'm missing? I can have the fenders rolled or do it myself, the car needs paint eventually. Trying to get the Bermuda Blue back all nice and original within the next year. I forgot to add they're 17" I'm looking at.

    Sounds like it kinda all depends. I've got time to decide and could get all the same size (will be ordering singly). Thanks again.
