+10 or +25 ?
I'm deciding on what offset to get i have a 96 hatch back and dont really know what offset to go with i dont want the wheels to stick out if you guys have any pictures post them please and if you also have any wheels in these offsets for sale let me know thanks
Re: +10 or +25 ?
Well, without work being done to the car to increase wheel/tire fitment, you will not be able to run a safe tire size on a lowered 96 EJ6 hatchback with those wheels, regardless of the offset you choose. For the 949 Racing 6UL's that are +36, you still need to roll the fenders and quarter panels, so you may want to keep that in mind.
PS. As a forewarning, this forum does not condone "tire stretching" due to its unsafe nature.

10. Do not ask about "stretching" tires onto wheels that are too wide.
All such topics will be locked. Tire manufacturers determine the wheel widths onto which each model and size tire can be mounted safely, and you can find the range of these wheel widths in the specs on their websites as well as those of retailers like the Tire Rack. Mounting tires onto wheels outside this range of approved wheel widths is unsafe because it can, and often does, result in the buildup of excessive stress and heat in the tire sidewalls, which can lead to the tire "popping the bead" and/or tire failure. Make sure your tires are mounted on wheels whose widths are within the approved range.
