Default Wheel offset...

How would wheels 16 x 6.5 with a +38 offset fit look on an Ep? Lookin at the Gram lights but the only offset choices for that particular wheel were +38 or +45. Thanks in advance

Either offset would fit fine.

+38 for sure. Give you a slightly wider stance. And a more aggressive look is always a plus.

Well I'm gettin deployed again, so figured why not treat myself to a NICE set of wheels. I saw a couple of the Gram Lights that I really liked. Thanks for all the great responses.

Exactly what I was gonna suggest. And just for reference, I believe you can get an 8 in. wide rim with a +35 offset and have it flush with the fenders. It won't be anything extreme but it'll have a clean look.

I think the 8in. wides would be pretty sick. Have you seen them first hand?

7 inch should be enough? With some spacers (if needed) and some 235 tires!
