Go with Wedsport TCo5N in 18... Aggressive offsets I believe off the top of my head 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 +10 or +12 and come in various colors and ONLY WEIGH 17 pounds!

Like 2000 bucks for the set, made in Japan. Weds do a cast/forge process so the wheels come out super light and super strong... Just a different thought then then typical track wheels.

Also could look at Enkei RPF1 18x9.5 and 18x10.5 (+15) those only weigh around 18-19 pounds and are super cheap!

Well I'm wondering if a +15 offset with a 245-255 tire would fit flush in the front.. Some people think its going to stick out of the fender a bit.

The owner of the car below rocking Wedsport 19 inch SA55M VERY WELL!
Offset on front is 19x9.5+15 front with a 245 front tire i believe.

It doesnt stick out if you are lowered with slight camber

Personally a +12 to+15 on a 9.5 inch front wheel in my opinion is PERFECT

His rear in the pic is a 19x10.5+15 with a 15MM spacer so +0 offset for the rear
