about to pull the trigger on these wheels from forgestar. im going with a 20x9 +18 up front and 20x10.5 +20 in the rear. i plan on lowering the car about 1 to 1.5 inches. keep in mind this is a daily driver Z in New york. if i want a somewhat flush setup is this the way to go? I dont want the wheels sunken in when i drop it nor do i want any rubbing. with that said i want a semi- agressive setup like this sunline racing z with ssr's @@SSR Wheels! Semi-solid forged ftw!!@@ All you wheel gurus please tell me if the fitment mentioned above will match my needs. thanks!

Front seems too agressive and rear seems too weak. Id go with +22/+12 if lowered.

+18 is too agressive even for a 9 inch rim? I could see it being too agressive for something like a 9.5 inch rim. Also I'm not trying to create a hella flush z, just something with flush or near flush with a small drop. The reason I mentioned these offsets is bc I don't have to wait for custom one to be made. Any more insight would help. Thanks for the comments guys!

Yah, but give it a shot, I guess, and add a 10mm spacer on the rear... I know varrostoen folks are using +17 on the front for akebono setup.

+18 for 9" front will not be too aggressive, especially if you're lowering. The rear, around +9 for 10.5" would be fine too.

I would have ordered theses wheels if it wasn't for their weak offered offsets on the wide sizes
