Quite the menacing stance.

Any shots of the wheels face and the whole car?

yup. Since that pic I had to roll and pull the fenders a bit due to the function&forms coilovers settling a little more than I anticipated. In terms of offset, a really light fender pull should definitely give you plenty of room for some 17x9's at +30 or even 17x9.5's at 35-38 depending on strut clearance. I wish more people tried aggressive fitments on this car instead of bullshit rotas or fake garbage at 7.5 +45

Word of the wise though, definitely get rid of the rubber stripping off the front fenders or you will rub, theres plenty, plenty of room up front for as aggressive a fitments as you want, the main concern is how ballsy are you with camber:

^Looks siiick. I was thinking about going 17x8+35, but your 17x9+30 are making me rethink things.

Curious, what are your tire specs?

No, none what so ever (see next reply). Don't be scurred to run low offsets.

No, 18x8 I don't drive on those as the tires are 245s too wide of a tire with too low of offset.
