I have been looking at some wheels lately. I was leaning towards 19's til I saw the price of the tires :eek:. So I am leaning more towards a 20. I have searched alot and found alot of info on 18's and all the wheels I want come in both. From what I read I need between a 26-30 mm offset. If this is right let me know Does anyone know the limits of offset And I am guessing the lower the number the more the inset? I am lost on this part of it so far but am trying to figure it out. Here are some pics of what I want.

WOW 30-26mm. You must want the wheels to stick out. I'm running a 41 mm and it right on the inside fender. People who get 46 + offset have to use spacers. I know the custome wheel shop wheels are like 36mm.
 
Josh, both sets of 18 inchers that I have have 38mm offset, and fit well. I have a set of black with chrome sitting in my garage with 245/40/18 on them. If you want to drive out to Blue Springs this weekend your more than welcome to try them on your car.
 
bill that is f-ing funny as hell omg. get them boner wheels that will look sweet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

seriously though, i saw the 1st wheel you posted, but do 20's for whatever reason those wheels in a 20 look sick on a mark, not many 20's do!
 
:shifty: How do you know my name. Are You the man with the arooga horn? Oh yeah I am real bad with names.:D
 
where DO you come up with this :q:q:q:q lazer. I love it.
 
Those are really different! The wife would love those bear wheels for her mark! Where are they avail?
 
19"tires arent bad if you buy used (ebay). i got my 4 pirelli pzero rosso's (235/45) for 130 shipped for all of em. Each pair from diff sellers..They had roughly 70% tread left..the tires are 160 each new.

as for wheels. my 19's are 8.5" wide with a 47mm offset. I had to use 5mm spacers to clear the uca.. They were only $20 for all 4 on ebay.
 
The dick wheels are fuggin hilarious, and if I had a new beetle it would totally have some daisy wheels. The care bear wheels are a good move for you though Laser. What offset are you running BTW?
 
I'm the guy in Blue Springs with several Marks. I met you at the noland road car show earlier this year. Had 2 black 96 LSC's.
 
I would definitely go with chrome and not black. I just personally think you need something that is going to compliment the color, not downplay it like black.
 
And Jamie, I have always wanted to run the torq thrust 2's. Since I first saw them 6-7 years ago. With the cobra center they are even sicker. Their gonna cost a little more cause their gonna have to drill a blank for me. I wanted them in 19 til I heard the cost, and tire availability. I wouldn't usually even recomend a 20 to most. But I will most definetly be running a good tire with a high psi rating. Most likely a run flat.
 
OHHHHHHHHH!:D:D:D Sorry man. This weekend is busy for me, I work sat and there are trees down in my moms backyard I have to take care of. I am planning a meet in this thread, Mike is also involved he started it. it's in my sig. We could definetly do it that day.
