thanks for the info pico and no worries steve, if I do +38 all around will they still be flush or should I get +30 all around and will that require fender rolling I've been curious for a while but now its getting close to the time where I get to pull the trigger and I'm getting super excited lol

I ordered (4) 18x9.5 and 2 of the 4 were 18x8.5 so tommorrow I've gotta deal with a bunch of b.s. all day trying to ship them back and what not. NOT COOL WORK. NOT COOL AT ALL. lol.
I didn't even notice the mess up and probably wouldnt have till I had them ready to mount.. so im kinda happy.
and not to mention my cars been on blocks for a week and now will be even longer. hence why I'm now in a cruddy mood.

speaking orders getting screwed up, what are some good work wheels dealers that will work with me and put together a well priced wheel/tire combo any suggestions would be awesome
edit: I checked the dealers list there aren't really any around me that are well priced so if they are well priced and have good service/a good rep i'd love to know thanks

+38 is what im running and they flush the +30 will be 8mm wider making a more aggressive stance. Depending how low and the profile tire you run the car might need a roll in the rear. But remember this, wheels that are 9.5 wide will have the same concaved look with both the +30 and +38 offsets. Work measures their offsets from the back spacing on the wheel hub. the only time the concave will look less deep is with the 8.5 and smaller diameter wheels.
Take a look at the pics I've post a page or two back in this thread and you will see that the +38 looks just fine
