Now the problem is since most wheel sites that offer packages like tirerack don't give good selections for wheels with low offset to get flush with the fender it will be a chore finding one you like and making sure the TPMS will work with it unless you don't care about using it.

I would provided they offer enough wheel selections. I checked out his threads but for of any relevance as of late, the only thing close to what I would consider is the volk gt since they are a deep lip type and not solely convex/concave set in which I do not dig. Other than the fact the style, one color, and the steep price I'm not leaning that way.
If more selections of wheels are offered later down the road I'll look back that way.

Question!
Rims 18x8 +40mm
Is there any benefit going 245/40/18's over 225/45/18? For the tire I'm looking at the price difference between those is negligible so if one is better than the other I might as well get that.
My suspension is stock.

i know what you mean. When i first got into studying wheels i noticed a lot of important info was not mentioned on most websites. (weight, offset, hub sizing)
Here's a good site i check out: www.1010tires.com
Their prices aren't all that great but on a good amount of the wheels they have in stock they provide width, diameter, weight and offsets.

I'll check it out. I mean unless a site offers and talks about all freaking wheels of the world or whatever to cover all their details then there's no need to look further to narrow down what you want and resort to who offers the best deal.
Reality is, no site does that so it's a lot of looking around at different ones for different brands/models.

I sometimes wish a reputable shop would hire me part time as their wheel guy. True i am not be a complete guru on the matter but i'd work pretty damn hard at perfecting the craft
that and i think it'd be kinda fun.
I'm actually working on a spreadsheet (been mentioned before) w/lookup functions that should be able to make it easier (like 10 times easier) to search for wheels. It's just tough to do because there are so many makes and models.

And it increases/decreases every year based on new ones that come out and discontinued items.
I'd find it more useful to offer a spreadsheet on the type of wheel design a brand/model offers; deep lip, concave, convex, spoke patterns, colors, wheel size, width. This for me would narrow it down easily selecting what I want then finding which one of those under that criteria has the offset I want and pulling the trigger.

^funny you should mention that criteria
The way i have it divided up is by company, model, weight, offset, diameter, width and design.
I've also included the description of 'concave', 'flatface' and 'non contingent' on the offset of each wheel so it'll tell you what you're lookin' to get when you select the offset.
I want to include pictures of each wheel but that'll take forever and a day
i hope to release the sheet by april or may.

pffft - adding to the spreadsheet won't be the problem. Getting the available specs may be a pain in the *** though. I'm beginning to notice that certain wheel companies don't release their full spec sheet some times to the public - which means i gotta do more damn digging for more accurate info

Thanks J!
I'm doing it for us (those that always participate on this thread
)
and to the above question
If you go with 18x9 +20 in the rear's we're gonna need tire sizes to be more accurate.
if you're going w/18x10 +20 you're crossing over into aggressive. Roll, pull and some camber w/incorrect tires.
