the offset is a bit too aggressive for the ride height. i suggest lowering it more especially the front/running a tad taller tires.

if swapping wheels, i'd go with a tad more positive offset (conservative) and run taller tires, even raise the height just a tad so that you can actually drive the car instead of scraping often.

otherwise you have a solid theme going and looks consistent and flows.

Maybe a little off subject, but if you're selling those rims, let me know

Looks good, just needs a little more negative camber to dial it in and would also raise it a tad

You have a little too much poke and it must be rubbing with that setup

If i were you, i'd have them lowered a tad bit more and run more camber. As well as a slight stretch on the tires

Brutal honesty warning! Those rims are uglier than sin! Too much black in my opinion.
